No one has covered more Notre Dame football games in person than Irish Illustrated’s Tim Prister. The Boise State game earlier this year marked the 500th game Prister has covered in person spanning an incredible 44 years on the Notre Dame beat.

On the November 3rd, 2025 edition of Notre Dame Federal Credit Union’s Irish Football Fix, host Angelo Di Carlo interviews Prister about his incredible accomplishment and career.

Tim reflects on his ‘Notre Dame record’, his favorite stadiums he’s been to , road trips that have stood out and places he still hopes to get to before he retires.

At one point, Prister attended 394 straight Notre Dame games. That ended in 2017 when he had a heart attack while picking up his credential before a Notre Dame home game. Tim was in the right place at the right time and was brought back to life by Notre Dame fire that happened to be steps away from him when he went to the ground. Tim reflects on that life changing moment and how his faith has been strengthened having gone through that experience.

A Michiana native, Prister also explains the impact going to Marian High School and Notre Dame had on him.
