Traditions:
For an in-depth look at the Notre Dame v. Navy rivalry, read our recent post: "Blood Brothers: Notre Dame v. Navy"
Although Notre Dame and Navy are currently represented on the field by a Leprechaun and a person in a goat costume, the traditional rivalry included a clash of two fierce animals. Navy's "Bill the Goat" was a favorite target of "Clashmore Mike," Notre Dame's Irish Terrier who, legend has it, was sustained on a diet of goat meat and trained to attack "Bill" on sight.
