Golden Domes

Description:
I'm not catholic. I'm not from northwest Indiana. I don't go to school there. Hell, I don't really even like them that much. But as I stand outside of this stadium that will be filled with 80,000 screaming people, I can't help but be a little moved. Some of the greatest players to ever lace it up were on that field. So many traditions that make this school, this football team so beloved across this country. So much succcess, a record of excellence like no one else can compare to. I'm not normally one for emotions, but as I stare at this huge stadium that is quiet and covered in darkness I just try to imagine what it would be like to run out of the tunnel wearing a golden dome. I can feel the adrenaline pumping through me. I feel like I could play a game right now. I can hear the crowd roar and feel the grass. The band is rocking and the sun is out. The whistle blows and the ball is kicked...that is as close to sacred as you can get.
