Notre Dame Drum Major Catches Kickoff

As a band member, you might be used to dodging rogue footballs or other flying sports equipment on the sidelines.

The show must go on, right?

Check out the fun video from NBC Sports here:

Notre Dame went on to beat Stanford 17-14, even without further assistance from King.
