Looking for 1 ticket for session 2 on Friday night from an ISU fan who may have an extra. Not particular on location, just looking for a fair price compared to what’s out on the secondary market sites.

Anyone planning to watch this tonight? I wasn’t planning too, but not sure I can wait until tomorrow morning to watch wrestling.

Swiderski is wrestling Mendez again which is the match I’d be most interested in with the exception of Cox/Snyder.

Hoping for some help here...

We live in the Twin Cities but will be in Des Moines next weekend to see family. Wondering if there are any good places to get some ISU gear for ourselves and our kiddo. I know there's Scheels, but wondering if there are any other good places to go while we're down there.

As a CF sponsor, I thought this announcement deserved some attention on the forums:

BIG NEWS!
WE'RE EXPANDING TO DAVENPORT

Mississippi River Distilling Company in LeClaire is purchasing the Artisan Grain Distillery and will be locating a new cocktail house and production facility there this summer.

The building at 318 East 2nd Street in downtown Davenport was uniquely equipped to welcome the expansion of the growing distillery. “We were getting tight on space in LeClaire and started looking for opportunities.” said owner Ryan Burchett. “This building already has distillation equipment in place and is accessible for the kinds of deliveries we need going in and out.”

The big addition for fans of the distillery will be a new location to enjoy their famous cocktails in Downtown Davenport. Owner Garrett Burchett thinks that is news people will be excited to hear. “We have so many fans in the Quad Cities who like to come to LeClaire every now and then, but the drive keeps them from enjoying our cocktails at other times. So we’re bringing the cocktails to town with a second Cocktail House location.”

The distillery will maintain all their current operations in LeClaire with a production facility, cocktail house and their recently opened Celebration Center event venue. Thanks to recently legislation passed in Iowa, the distillery is allowed to have a second retail location. “As we started looking at our options to gain more space, it just made sense.” said Ryan. “If we’re going to have a second location, it might as well be a place that allows more people to enjoy our stuff.”

The new law wasn’t the only thing that helped Mississippi River Distilling Company look at Downtown Davenport. “We’re really excited about the location. This is a corridor of downtown that is really on the up and up.” said Garrett. “New streetscaping and revitalized buildings on both sides of the street will make this area a wonderful entertainment destination.”

The distillery is also taking advantage of the Downtown Davenport Partnership improvement grant program and working with the City of Davenport Small Business Loan program to help pull the project together. “Davenport is doing a great job of making opportunities available to help draw small businesses downtown.” said Ryan. “We look forward to working with community partners to make this project a reality and be a part of this renaissance downtown.”

“MRDC’s expansion to downtown Davenport is a welcome addition to our growing family of the Quad Cities’ best and most-beloved local brands,” said Kyle Carter, Downtown Davenport Partnership Executive Director.” Their new facility is a perfect fit on East 2nd Street, and we’re eager to see MRDC bring its unique character and top-notch product to the neighborhood.”

The distillery is working on renovations to the space in hopes of opening soon. “We do have some work to do, but it shouldn’t be a long build out.” said Garrett. “We think we can have things on their feet in a few months so we can enjoy a busy summer downtown.”

NOW HIRING FOR ALL LOCATIONS

Our expansion to Davenport means we're hiring! We will be hiring now so staff can train at our facility in LeClaire and prepare for opening in Davenport soon. Also hiring help for the Celebration Center with a busy wedding season coming up.

We're hiring:
Bartenders in LeClaire and Davenport
Servers in LeClaire and Davenport
Managers
Setup/Tear Down Team at our Celebration Center

Submit your application at our website today!

Join Our Team - Mississippi River Distilling Company

Mississippi River Distilling Company is always looking for people interested in joining our family at both our LeClaire and Davenport facilities.

My wife and I have tickets for session 2 but are only planning to drive in for the day instead of staying somewhere close to Fiserv. Does anyone have recommendations of fun things to do or see that might be near the arena? Hoping to just find parking nearby mid-morning or early afternoon.

I’ve been looking online but also don’t see any fan events or pep rallies going on the day of the games. This is our first time doing anything NCAA tournament related so we have no idea what to expect.

Welcome to another weekly post from the On That Note guys. We are @cyclones500, @CycloneRulzzz and me.

This week we're looking for song titles, lyrics or artist names that mention meals or planned eating events. Examples are Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Supper, Meal, Snack, Repast, Bite to Eat, etc.

Just to open it up ever so slightly we've decided to include "restaurant," "diner" or other commercial eating establishment. Does NOT include BAR! (We've done that previously.)

We are NOT including specific food items. So no to burgers, pizza etc. Again, we've previously had that as a topic.

Last week we tackled "Let's Dance." That thread can be found here: https://cyclonefanatic.com/forum/threads/on-that-note-lets-dance.270469/

A couple to get us started:

Was there a thread?

Or is the ISU one the tourney thread?

Only comment for the opening game is I hope this ultra orange NBA Jam style ball is the norm for 3 weeks.

Just like @cyfan92 did last year, I wanted to create a centralized place for commitments and known offers/targets. Similarly this will be separate from the master list of every human being entering the transfer portal. Again try to keep this to OFFERS and credible interest only!

As of 5/15/2022, ISU has 1 open scholarship after the Osun Osunniyi commitment.

What teams tend to destroy your bracket in your NCAA pools?

"All of them" is the easy answer, but I seem to ride the fail train when picking Tennessee, Purdue, Gonzaga, Duke and every single Pac 12 team.

Who has been your Achilles Heel for years?

Ms3r4ISU · Mar 15, 2022

Iowa Pork Producers Association says brackets are set and first round of voting is open for this year's Pulled Pork Madness. Voting is by rounds, with the first round open through 10 a.m. this Friday, March 18. Take a look and vote. If you try any of the options, let us know how they are.

How is this stuff not figured out days ahead with basically a pre-determined notice to the school by a certain time on a certain date? If I were Colorado State I would be PISSED. They are waiting to hear about how they are traveling while their opponent just gets to drive a few hours.

Which pod of four teams do you look at and think 'honestly, on any given day any one of these four can come out of this 2-0...'

UCONN
New Mexico State

Arkansas
Vermont

I think both higher seeds prevail but those games could be upsets.

Iowa
Richmond

Providence
South Dakota State

Chances of Iowa losing are soooo slim. But this pod is one of early tip pods on Thursday.

Houston
UAB

Illinois
Chattanooga

I am really close to picking UAB and Chattanooga in these games.

EnkAMania · Mar 14, 2022

There were a total of 211 brackets in the Bracket Matrix. Here's how the big network guys faired.

Decourcy (FOX) - 9th place
Lunardi (ESPN) - tied for 150th place
Palm (CBS) - tied for 193rd place

Does anyone else do this? Work-free weekends are sacred to me and to this point I've refused to engage with my inbox until Monday. But now I'm spending a lot of my Mondays catching up on weekend emails. Not from my coworkers but from external clients, etc. Is there any solution or is this just how it is?
