If you’ve been avoiding Notre Dame basketball and hockey games because of the lack of concessions available, you no longer have that excuse. Beginning with the men’s basketball game Wednesday against Boston College, food and beverages will be offered once again at Purcell Pavilion and Compton Family Ice Arena:
🥨, 🥤, and 🌠… oh my!
The next time you visit Purcell Pavilion or @NDCFIA, you'll have your choice of food and beverage options as you cheer on @NDmbb, @NDwbb, and @NDHockey!

While we don’t know if this will provide a boost in attendance at these events, the men’s basketball team in particular could use it. Much has been made about the Irish having a team that could end the program’s NCAA Tournament drought but not attracting a lot of fans besides the students. It’s unknown if no concessions played a part in keeping people away, but all that matters is that it no longer is an issue. Folks attending basketball and hockey games now can eat and drink as their hearts desire.
One thing that hasn’t changed is that masks still are required for attendees of these games, so remember to wear yours.
