I don't get what the problem is with the hawkeye fans knocking a clone fan for being mad about this situtation.
An example. If someone does something stupid in life, say cut you off in traffic. You don't chase them down and throw trash at them.
The world is full of stupid people, from San Diego to New Jersey. The difference is how you react in a situation. Should the stupid drunk clone fan of gotten up on the truck and started waving a flag. Should the stupid drunk hawkeye fans of pelted him with beer. One of those chicken and egg things. Would this of happened if this didn't happen. Doesn't matter, people do stupid drunk **** all the time, its when it becomes assault is when it gets out of control.
Bottom line hawkeye nation is that being drunk on top of a truck and shouting hawkeyes suck isn't a crime. Throwing projectiles at someone over and over again is a crime. No matter how you slice the situation it was wrong. I don't know if cyclone nation is trying to form some type of moral victory or whatnot. Looking at the video all i see is a overly drunk fan base pelting an opposing fanbase with beer. It doesn't make it right for Iowa, Ohio State, Penn State, no one.
Ive been heckled in Lincoln and in Ames but never resorted to violence. But when your drunk you dont think about those things. You dont think you might hirt someone or someone elses property. Alcohol impares judgement as we all know. Unfortunately you have just given your University more ammo against the drinking problem in Iowa City.
