The son of the former Notre Dame standout Joe Montana was among 11 Fighting Irish athletes arrested on misdemeanor charges of underage drinking at a party Friday night in South Bend, Ind. A total of 44 people were arrested after the police discovered the party, said Bill Redman, the St. Joseph County Police assistant chief.
I don’t want to make light of underage drinking because there are plenty of stories out there that end in tragedy after a young person had too much to drink. But it’s not surprising that a bunch of college students got in trouble after their party got broken up and the only reason why this story is on 2A instead of 9B is because it was Joe Montana’s son (Nate is his name).
Either way, it’s not a good start for young Nate, or any of the 11 Irish athletes that were busted.
