Triptych
Next Saturday the University of Notre Dame hosts the University of
New Mexico in a football game. The Fighting Irish vs. the Lobos.
The left panel is Touchdown Jesus, on a chapel I believe at Notre
Dame. The right panel is the Lobo logo of UNM in the 1960’s. The center panel
is my father, bridging the two cultures.
