    This is what the US media are saying about the event…

    – Dublin’s Aviva Stadium (50k) has been sold out since March and could have been sold twice over. These tickets were among the hottest ever for a game.

    - Over 35,000 Americans are travelling to Dublin for the game. This is the biggest ever movement of Americans into Ireland.

    - The Notre Dame v Navy game is worth $100 million to the Irish economy.

    - The 2nd September will be the busiest day ever in the history of Dublin airport.

    - CBS Sports will telecast the game live in the United States, and ESPN America will broadcast the game in 63 countries.
