Penn State alumnus and superfan Bob Witt has outdone himself again this year.

The 2013 football season just ended, but it's never too early to start thinking about next year. Penn State fans hoping to root on the Nittany Lions in Dublin, Ireland at the 2014 Croke Park Classic on August 30 will have the opportunity to buy single game tickets starting next Friday.
State Patty's Day will be held March 1, 2014, sandwiched like always between THON weekend and spring break. The student-created drinking holiday was born in 2007, when St. Patrick's Day fell during spring break, and has occurred annually since.
