They won't suspend the series, but they should. The one Iowa band member with broken ribs could have easily been killed.
Barta and Pollard are clowns. Pathetic clowns. And I truly despise Pollard. At least with Barta you kind of know what you are getting. Pollard is a real slime ball, as insincere as they come. His first reaction to hearing about the incident was to whine about Iowa ruining Iowa State's gameday. How would Pollar reactt if one of his beloved children had been injured by an Iowa fan? You would never hear the end of it.
This series needs to take some time off, at least. It getting beyond good-natured banter. It is not safe to go to Ames, and I dare say it isn't safe for Iowa State fans to make the trip to Kinnick.
When I was a very young man, it was common for visiting Big Ten schools to bring their bands. It was my introduction to some of the very best bands in the country, including Ohio State, Michigan, Purdue, etc. Those were big time bands with big sound. Back then, the crowd seemed to genuinely enjoy hearing the opposing band and their traditional fight songs and music. Abusing band members (young kids) was unthinkable.
