DDavid WitcheyFun fact We are going to be under these lights. Prior to the 1997 expansion, Notre Dame Stadium lacked permanent field lights. On September 18, 1982, portable lighting by Musco Lighting was used for the first night game in the stadiums history. Permanent lights were installed as part of the expansion. The lights were paid for by NBC, which has held the exclusive television rights to all home games since 1991. The permanent lights were added primarily to ensure sufficient lighting for mid-afternoon games in November; the universitys agreement with NBC stipulates that there be no home night games.[3] However, the stadium hosted its first night game in 21 years on October 22, 2011 when the Irish hosted USC.[4]
