I was at that game. I was in the same class as Rudy, Class of 1976. I knew Rudy but we were not friends. I met him a few times when I snuck into the Nautilus Room in the ACC and he was in there working out (I was not a football player and only football players could use the Nautilus Room, the rest of us had to sneak in and hope to not get caught). I was in the stands for that Georgia Tech game. What he says at the 09:55 mark is absolutely correct! I was in the Student Section. We did NOT start chanting, "Rudy", until after he made that play and the announcer came on and said a few words about him (e.g., that he had served four years in the Navy, he was 27 years old when he made that play!). I have told people this for years, but many want to believe the movie (i.e., that people in the stands started chanting, "Rudy" to help get him in the game).

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Thank you for sharing your story!

[@goldenbear8250]

It is a great story, and it IS TRUE that Rudy got his grades up and got accepted as a 3rd yr transfer to Notre Dame, walked on to the football team, got to dress and play on the last play, in his last game vs. GA Tech, helped sack the QB on the last play of the game vs. Ga. Tech, and was carried off of the field on his team mates shoulders. ALL OF THAT IS TRUE.

[@BroadcastJohn]

Yes there were true facts included in the movie. But there were also false facts. After all, this was not a documentary. It was a feature film where the director and producers were allowed to add embellishments to make it more entertaining and hopefully earn more money. Some of the major false facts included: 1) the Notre Dame football players never turned in their jerseys to Coach Devine in an attempt to get Rudy to play in one game; 2) the groundskeeper named Fortune that mentored Rudy and gave him a job to work in the football stadium did not exist. He was a composite of multiple people who mentored Rudy, 3) Rudy did not have an older brother who gave Rudy a hard time early on. 4) The film showed how Rudy had to work to be able to pay for his college education at Holy Cross and Notre Dame. However, Rudy had served in the Navy before college and earned G.I. Bill educational benefits that entitled him to obtain a four year college degree tuition free.

Sound track of crowd chanting "Rudy, Rudy" was recorded during a 4th of July Angels baseball game in Anaheim. Announcer asked crowd to do the chant between the end of the game and the beginning of the fireworks show. It was done in two takes. Reference was made by the announcer of a new movie entitled "Rudy". Had no idea what it was to be about.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Thats a pretty cool story!!!

[@carseye1219]

As a Buckeye, I always hated the ND mystique but I had to admit I liked the movie. I still get choked up at the end when I watch it. However, having been an undergrad in '75 (OSU) myself, the first thing I noticed about the film was "why does everybody's hairstyles and clothes look more like '65?" Look at the 1975 ND team photo. Rudy himself had longer hair. Couldn't the director have showed photos/film of the actual team and said "hey, look like this?"

[@zuzepfingeredfleas8744]

If most people do not know by now that Hollywood takes creative license even with true stories, they need to not watch movies anymore. As many have said here, would we have even watched the movie if they made it 100% accurate? Highly doubtful. People would gripe how boring it was. Rudy is a classic today. Rudy got some notoriety and cash out of it for his life. Cool for him. We got a nice rah rah story that many will relate as they try to make it in their lives. How can this be bad or wrong? It isn't.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

I agree with you! I personally love the fact that these movies inspire others in a powerful way. Rudy is one of my favorite movies of all-time. But we still should look at the facts objectively. Nothing wrong with understanding both sides.

[@JeffreySmith-hx9hb]

Rudy was on practice squad. He was not liked because of his work ethics. He was going all out. Basically he was just tough kid. He did get in the game and made the tackle. And was carried off the field. But some others parts where the players were putting their jersey in so Rudy can play never happened. He was a young man who got in Notre Dame and graduated. Played a couple of plays.

The GI Bill doesn't "cover your tuition." It is a certain dollar figure, based on which iteration of the GI Bill you are talking about. Generally speaking though, in order for the GI Bill to cover someone's tuition, it needs to be a very inexpensive school. Like a Community College. Otherwise, it contributes to a persons tuition. And for an expensive university like Notre Dame, it would not come close to fulfilling the entire tuition.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Joseph Hewes thank you for your insight!

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

@@poohbeartube I love the breakdown!

[@poohbeartube]

Everyone I know who participated in the Vietnam Era GI Bill basically claimed it paid for their college education. The Vietnam Era GI Bill (VEGIB) entitlement was 1½ months of educational assistance for each month served on active duty, up to 45 months. Considering Notre Dame's tuition base for the 1974-75 year consisted of $1391 in tuition fees per semester, an average of $580 for room and board (depending on hall) and other miscellaneous fees totaling $54 dollars, coming to about $3995 for the academic year, I think it could be true.

[@josephhewes3923]

@@poohbeartube The GI Bill has changed a dozen times over the years. And college tuition has skyrocketed since the 1960's and early 1970's. And of course, some schools are more expensive than others. I served in the 1980's. So, telling me what happened with Vietnam era veterans doesn't explain what happened with my generation, and my generation doesn't explain what happened with subsequent generations.

[@poohbeartube]

@@josephhewes3923 I served in the 1980's also and participated in the VEAP program. I did and quick search but did not find actual benefit $ amounts for the Vietnam Era GI Bill or Post-Vietnam Era Veterans Educational Assistance Program and I was hoping you would know. I remember I contributed $2700 and received $8100 in benefits.

There's no inspiration in that stupid story. Why should I be inspired by someone who only goal was to play one single play in college football. That's pretty pathetic and I have higher standards than that.

[@coachga2]

Rory Lehmann You don’t have to be inspired by this story. But someone else can be. Inspirations and dreams are personal, individual things. I don’t think you have higher standards, just different standards. Bashing other people’s personal dreams and goals is not cool!

I will tell you this: I don't know OR care how true the movie was/is. Because of me picking it up in a video store and watching it (and subsequently buying it and watching it 50 times) I went back to college in my 40s, got a B.A. and an M. A and got a job as a teacher, and it is a good thing, too, because the industry I was in before that (Corporate Communications) no longer exists.

It really takes a feable mind not to understand that the movie "RUDY" was made to be an inspiration to anyone who has a dream and continues to drive toward their goal. I spent a couple of days with Rudy in Cincinnati years ago and he told me the story of his detractors and I didn't understand why anyone needed to say negative things about a movie that was such an inspiration to millions. People didn't care about that after watching and getting the feelings they had, and I knew that the Rudy story was actually built around his dreams that CAME TRUE. How about you? Have you ever had a dream and lived it? I did and have. Watch the movie for its reason and come away inspired.

So Rudy claims 92% truth in this Rudy movie? I have watched it multiple times, own the DVD, and performed extensive research on this movie. No way is it 92% accurate. If anything, it is somewhere below 50%. But then I realize that this movie is not a documentary so embellishments are to be expected. After all, they need to make a profit to pay off the investors, crew, and actors. In spite of all this, I still will watch this movie primarily for the touching musical score and Rudy's ultimate goal that does get fulfilled. I once had a professional sports dream when I was young.

I loved this movie, once it was known it was not 100% accurate, it's now to me a very silly movie.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Understandable. That’s Hollywood for you!

[@JonathanRingo]

It's a line, not really much of a fine line either, if it's a true story then make the film as accurate as possible without compromising what makes the story special and film worthy in the first place, don't say "Based On A True Story" as it has become a contorted phrase. Condensing timelines, events, even characters to a certain degree can help the story without sacrificing its integrity, but when lies and manipulation of truths and personal character become necessary for the films true story, it ceases being a true story and more the "Inspired By True Events"

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

I agree with you!!

[@vominator]

Also true: ND running up the score every chance they get, then crying if any team does it to them

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Haha that’s funny!! Happens a lot with powerhouse type teams not liking what they do to others

[@guybaldridge2475]

I loved this movie great actor

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Guy Baldridge great actor and movie!

[@lindseysummers5351]

I do enjoy Sean Astin. Even when he played a villain in 24, you felt bad for him at the end when he was killed.

[@davidgerald133]

Yeah....ITS A DAMN MOVIE. Not ONE biopic is 100% accurate.....its not a documentary

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

As I stated in the video

[@aleksandard8884]

I personally think this movie is a top 5 for me

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Yes!!! This is one of my fav movies of all time!

[@semperintrepidus16]

Rudy still had to eat (more than most to keep up with the big boys btw). Remember, he did Not have a rich daddy. Yes, ND is a pricey private university, and the G.I. bill paid the tuition, but it didn't put a roof over Rudy's head, etc. He had to bust his ass in other words, and that's plenty heroic.

[@Solo-Anarchist]

Good video ;-) but...the famous play didnt happen exactly that way, the memorable chant of his name didnt really happen, he didnt have to work or worry about money, he didnt have an older brother, and in fact was the oldest himself, the coach actually liked him, his father actually supported him, the black guy that befriended and encouraged him that worked for the school was a "composite of everyone that encouraged him" and didnt actually exist, wasnt the last game of the season, weren't all the actual teams that they played, he was actually in the navy, the famous uniform scene never happened, the motivational speech never happened....hell, his name isnt even actually Rudy....the only thing I can actually see as "true" in this story is that: at some point a guy played for 0:27 seconds for Notre Dame. Everything else is garbage. Wtf...

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

Haha I loved your breakdown

[@atownish1488hh]

Your pretty smart i bet you live in your parents basement in your late twenties early thirties

[@frankreynolds9418]

Sounds like a little more than 8% embellished. Navy? G.I. Bill? Boxing? No older brother? Janitor mentor and ex-Notre Dame player didn't exist? He wasn't carried off like a hero and nobody gave a shit about him? Next your going to say that he didn't really have a bad ass Notre Dame varsity jacket from the second hand shop! This movie was about 8% real.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

frank reynolds valid points you have!! 🎥💭

[@richarddarmstadt1630]

I think it's fine if they embellish a little for entertainment/drama purposes so long as they don't go so far as to alter facts too much where it becomes too far from reality. They always put in the credits "based" on a true story. They don't say that this is the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

You’re right!! Being based on a true story is different than a true story

[@thomasridley6591]

It was a freaking good movie. When is part 2 coming out?

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

It was a very good movie!! My video is only highlighting the misconception while still giving the movie its props. And wait.... you’re saying there is supposed to be a Rudy 2?!? Or talking about my videos? Haha

[@thomasridley6591]

@@DATAProductionsMedia Nah, just joking, but would watch it if there was one. :-)

[@beyondleftfield4470]

I find videos like this to pretty much be pointless, as the level of accuracy of such a film is unlikely to drastically effect one's abilities to watch other sports movies or what-have-you. This comes across as a "hater" not unlike the character played by Kevin Spacey in the movie "Fred Clause".

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

I am sorry you feel this way and you are entitled to your opinion and irespect that! Thank you for your input, but if you were to watch the full video, you would see that I do not come off as a hater. I praise the film accepting its lack of absolute accuracy. Subscribe for more content tho ;)

Love the movie but you can see that Rudy is awful in math since it was more like 92% of the movie was fake compared to his statement of it being true..Go Rudy

Movie magic!

[@semperintrepidus16]

There's a huge gap between offering a fellow teammate one's spot and "threatens to quit". Nothing in the movie was so exaggerrated like those words from this KZbin, NOT from the movie.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

I respect your opinion! From my side, I take in to account that Hollywood must pull at the emotional strings which leads to more exaggeration. Rudy said himself the movie was 92% accurate, so I analyzed off that. Appreciate your take though!

[@Raabulls]

I really loved this movie it really happened in real life I own it go Irish

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

It’s a great movie!

[@nickk5263]

All that is wayyyyy more than 8% inaccuracies

Lol at least be in the right comment section Joey 🤣🤣. You can call it whatever you want, it’s just above your head right now, but if you watch all my videos in the sports gematria category, you’ll find quickly it’s not

[@Asphaltaperider]

So, actually it’s all a complete lie. Pretty typical of “based on a true story.” Ok thank you.

[@DATAProductionsMedia]

According to the Real Rudy, it’s 92% accurate
