Notre Dame Football: 51 Jerome Bettis Photos as ‘The Bus’ Turns 51

Happy birthday to the BUS!

Jerome Bettis is one of the first Notre Dame players I remember watching and rooting for on Saturdays before he ultimately went to the NFL where he starred for the Rams before turning into a Hall of Fame-caliber player for his accomplishments with the Steelers.

“The Bus” is celebrating his 51st birthday today and what better way to celebrate the former Notre Dame star and recent Notre Dame graduate than by looking at him through the years?

Look back now at “The Bus” through the years from when it left its depot in Detroit to where it’s parked now, in Canton, Ohio.
