I mean I get that all of you are having fun with the story and that's understood and not surprising at all, but do you actually believe the stuff that you are posting about trying to piece things together?

Still delusional. A lot of bad things happen at ND, far worse than free tattoos and you are just okay with all of this being swept under the rug?

I've already said I don't know what to believe before having him answer questions. I'd lean towards him being duped originally, but then embellishing relationship details as the story started to grow out of control. He (and his dad especially) added gas to whatever fire was burning by saying she was the love of his life, etc.Raw Dawgin' it;1368365 wrote:Do you actually believe he was 100% duped?
You don't think between him and his family(or ND booster) that he couldn't scrape up the funds to see his deceased true love?thavoice;1368337 wrote:and how many college kids have the funds to travel from Indiana to California?

ouch!I’m sincerely sorry for all my Notre Dame friends who told me they were looking past the way our school treated Lizzy Seeberg in life and in death — in no small measure because Manti was “the real deal,” and represented “what Notre Dame is really all about.”
Turns out, they were right.

I didn't say rich, but do you have any idea on the cost of living in Hawaii? To think he couldn't swing a flight because he's your typical "poor college student" is laughable.

Got it.

Irrelevant. I mean can you be anymore delusional? Seriously.

it would appear it isn't far more than anyone would put into a cruel joke. It didn't just start a couple months ago.queencitybuckeye;1368384 wrote:Sorry, missing the point.

I'm saying he could spring the funds if needed. Keep your head in the sand. :laugh:karen lotz;1368401 wrote:no, I didn't say that. you said because the cost of living is high in Hawaii, he could afford a last minute flight across the country. bingo.
