This Saturday, Notre Dame will play its annual Shamrock Series game, this time hosting Boston College.

Notre Dame is considered the home team despite the game being held in Boston's Fenway Park, home of the Red Sox.

It's the first time in 47 years that a football game is being played in Fenway. The last game was in 1968 when the Boston Patriots hosted the Cincinnati Bengals in their last game in the AFL.

In preparation, there have been several time-lapse videos of the historic stadium getting a makeover into a football field.
