The Last.
The first big thing about senior year is over. (Football, idiots.) As my away message has noted for a while, Steve Canham had the idea to throw Tortillas at halftime. Everyone else threw marshmallows. He wanted to do this, because they fly like frisbees.
The following paragraph is taken from an ESPN.com article, about the game:
Notre Dame (8-2) needs to beat Stanford next week to remain eligible for its first Bowl Championship Series berth since 2000. Students threw tortillas back and forth throughout the game in anticipation of a possible Fiesta Bowl invitation. Someone also threw an orange on the field after an Irish touchdown.
That was us.
Additionally, here are some pictures from this year's football season.

ha, the oranges were me, too. me and a few of my dillon friends grabbed a ton of oranges and tossed 'em onto the field, as i'm sure you saw. the terribly ironic part was that we were playing the Syracus Orangemen. Eh.

They also asked Weis if he say the tortillas at the press conf. after the game(11/20) as well.
Q. I know you were paying attention to the field. Did you happen to see the tortillas flying around?
COACH Charlie Weis: I'll tell you what, I didn't see too much of that during the game, but I really enjoyed the moment after the game of watching the players and the fans. It was really cool to be able to stand back and stand away from it and just enjoy the moment because I really looked at the alums to tell you the truth. That's how I was looking at that moment. I was just standing back and saying this is really cool. The only thing is I had a better seat than most of the alums.
Q. Any further thought on the oranges or the tortillas?
COACH Charlie Weis: I hope that we go play a great game against Stanford. I hope we win, and I hope for our whole University and everyone affiliated, including the media, I hope for the alum, for the student body, but most importantly for the team and the people affiliated with the team, I hope that we go out and play our best against Stanford, I hope we win and I hope we have an opportunity to go play in one of those big games on January 2nd or January 3rd and see how we can make out.
