Jon If it ends up being Houston it will be a great game. Not so much just because I live here but a matchup for instance against Texas A+M would be tremendous. The Houston Hawkeyes would welcome all Iowa fans who would choose to come.

I was in from Texas so 11 was good. Gave me an opportunity to watch Iowa Volleyball match Saturday night. Iowa volleyball has a long way to go thats for sure. Hoping for MSU to be 11 also. Then I will be able to watch it, drive on up to Cedar Falls for the UNI game(niece in marching band there)

My cousin(he went to undergrad at Drake but masters at Iowa) son is getting married the weekend of the Michigan game in MSP. Said I would go. Fortunately the wedding is on Sunday but there is some family deal on Saturday night. Wont be at home but will be able to watch in bar. Jewish no...

Was there and glad Iowa won. However I was really glad we beat Graham the coach. A few years ago he was a coordinator at Tulsa. Left there for Rice and took Rice to a bowl for the first time in decades. After one year at Rice he goes back to Tulsa to be the head coach. He had gotten a rep for...

Was at the Bravosports area at the baseball field(bought my ticket thru them). Pitt was having a reception there. Their cheerleaders were there. Fans were pretty decent.

I had no trouble at all. But i go in early to watch the warmups

That is not correct. I go to University of Houston games and they play in the on campus stadium. Beer is sold in the stadium. But at Kinnick they could never do that. They would need 1000 police to keep order. But plenty of people have booze. Just count the empty miniatures in the mens bathrooms.

He didnt play against MS St as he was suspended because he cut a practice not the week before the game but the week before that when they had a bye the Sat before the Ms State game. I was at the game and he was on the sideline in street clothes.

Graduated from Iowa. Parents didnt go or didnt finish college. Never considered going to another school. Have lived in Texas since 77. People sometimes ask me who do you pull for around here. My answer is no one. Just because I live here doesnt make me a UT or AM fan. Do like going to University...

Maybe he can go back and call D3 ball or HS ball. That would be interesting. Actually there is a guy I know in Houston who was an NBA official. He now calls D2,D3, JUCO and HS. But it doesnt bother him. He loves the game. Worked a girls scrimmage with him last year. Eddie needs to go back down...

Sometimes girls want to stay closer to home. Kelsey Bone who was the Gatorade National Player of the year 2 years ago at Sugarland Dulles in Houston signed with South Carolina. She was a top scorer for them. What I heard locally is she wanted to get away from her mother. But she transferred back...

Just got home from Lombardi Award. Although Adrian didnt win, I did have a chance to thank him afterwards for his contributions at Iowa. Spoke to his mother briefly. Carl Jackson(former Iowa running backs coach) was there. Kacenski spoke for him. Attached are some pictures.

I went to the Penn State game. In 1972 after I graduated they offered Alumni association life memberships for a hundred bucks. I bought one. when Alumni association block was going to open up for a hundred dollar donation i got a weeks head start. Got two tickets at face. I sure wasnt flying up...

I bought an eticket last year for the NW game. It had my name on it also. But other than scanning the ticket when I walked in no one asked me for an id.

In Houston we have had the following: Night at the Rockets with Ryan Bowen(when he played here). had a meet and greet afterwards. Book sigining with Milo Hamilton(an Iowa grad) before an Astros game. Dinner with Drew Tate before the Senior Bowl. Kirk Ferentz is not out of the...

Well I was able to get my two tickets for homecoming game today from the ticket office shortly after they sent out the email. They are on the east side at the goal line pretty far up. I paid the old capital club upgrade to my life membership(they dont seem to sell those anymore). The 100 I paid...

Unrelated but I talked to the alumni association today. On Monday they will be sending out an email to Old Capital Club members and above for the first shot at the associations allotment of homecoming tickets. I bought a life membership in 73 for $100 when my first free year expired. I kicked in...

While an Iowa grad and a big time FB fan, I do like to watch good soccer. the first big match I ever went to was and England/Ireland friendly at Landswone Road in Dublin. It was awesome. have also been to a game at Marancana in Rio and also at Crystal Palace in London. On the biggest stages it...

I have never been a season ticket holder(live 1000 miles from IC-not practical). But I got an away application. I dont know if I should even waste my time sending it in.

I have been to this game the last two times it was played at NW. Tickets not a problem. Transportation options to Chicago from Houston are much cheaper than to IC. I mostly go to away games anyway.
