Let's talk about this tailgating bus to Notre Dame

Friend of mine was telling me about a bus from chicago to ND for the game a while back. I thought it was some UGA sponsored thing full of dawgs...looked into it and it's a Notre Dame thing that they do for every home game.

I've got a flight, still don't have hotel yet but no rush there, which leaves me with a rental car being the last big hurdle. However, this would practically eliminate the need for one since we can just uber around chicago the rest of the time. Do yall think many UGA folks will join this thing and at least give us a solid presence on there? HAve yall heard anyone else talk about it? If it's going to be jam packed with 95% ND fans it's definitely not worth it at all, but if it was a heavy UGA contingent it sounds like a pretty solid move.

Big downsides would be only getting there 4 hours prior to kickoff, then having to wait around an hour after.
