This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I attended one in 2013(?)-ish by golfjunkie17

Not sure since. Muffet McGraw and Lou Somogyi were the “headline” speakers at the one I attended, along with some former players who were more from my fathers era (ND ‘73). I was not familiar with the players, but my dad seemed to have fond memories of them. It was at Moreau, in a small cafeteria-type room, probably had 50-100 attendees throughout the night. There was a small concession stand (which served ice cold Old Style and other refreshments/snacks). Muffet and Lou were very generous with their time, stayed at the event through it’s entirety, and mixed and mingled with everyone. They both clearly had spent a good amount of time preparing for the evening, as both got up and spoke for extended periods of time. Also, Muffet’s husband is a cool dude.

I know not responsive to the original question of if they are going on or not, but I do recommend checking it out some time if they are still going on. It did kind of start to drag after a while (we were there well over 2 hours), but it was a really cool event that offered access to some people closely connected to ND, in an intimate setting where you could really get up close and ask questions and just b.s. with them. And, man, Lou Somogyi can tell a story.

*edit - and just discussing with my wife, I’m now thinking it may have even been earlier than 2013.
