The official Twitter account of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish equipment manager has posted this titillating preview of the Irish helmets for this weekends matchup against the Maryland Terrapins:
Part of me thinks this is the most exciting helmet the Irish have yet-worn. Another part of me feels like this is the helmet a nine-year-old girl with a Bedazzler might design.
Beyond the family-sized clover in on the helmet, it's hard to not notice the strange gold-weave-look going on here. Maybe I'll love this popcorn kernel of golden eye-meltingness when I actually see 11 duplicates of it are dashing and diving around the gridiron.
Or maybe it's just ugly as sin.
The Notre Dame -- Maryland fashion show kicks off this Saturday at 6:30 PM Central Time.
