With Notre Dame on such a hot tear lately, many have been wondering when Purcell Pavilion will start getting more fannies in its seats. The student section has been more packed lately, but the number of fans in the rest of the arena has left a little to be desired. Well, that won’t be the case for at least one night. People have realized how big the Irish’s game against Duke will be, and they want to be in the house for it:
Just updated the preview section of the game preview on https://t.co/KjFNzGDYR1 – from 'limited tickets available' to
SOLD OUT
It will be a fully packed Purcell Pavilion tonight – with a jammed full student body section. #GoIrish #BeatDuke

Granted, some probably are there to watch Mike Krzyzewski in South Bend for one last time. Still, even that’s the case, there will be large contingent of Irish fans. If you don’t believe that, just look at these:

You don’t have to be at the game to wear green either. The South Bend Cubs are doing their part:
Big game tonight in South Bend!
We are wearing green for you @NDMikeBrey and @NDmbb! #IrishWearGreen #GoIrish pic.twitter.com/ePpR93cGH4— South Bend Cubs (@SBCubs) January 31, 2022
With this game being shown on ESPN, a large TV audience will tune in to watch as big a moment for Notre Dame basketball as there has been in some time. To make it even better, Purcell Pavilion will be rocking like nothing else. Gosh, is it a good time to be following this program.
