Why does UI Foundatio call during BB games?

This is the second time this year. I told him to call back after the game. He asked what quarter it was.

The University of Iowa has enough of my money, and I tell them that every time they call.

What quarter... That's a good one.

Actually I feel sorry for whatever poor students are working in the Foundatipn's call center.

they call during games because they know alumni are home.

I tried to get off the phone with one student once and couldn't believe how persistent they were. I had to hang up on her because she wouldn't take no for an answer.
