Alright WSU fan here
- Thread starter Cougfan99
- Start date
I was in Pullman last month on a road trip and here are my notes:
-As I headed towards Pullman north on 95 the view up on the hill of Lewiston, ID is spectacular
-Went North over that hill and immediately met light brown wheat fields for miles around as far as I could see
-Stopped by the visitors bureau and was told my best chance of finding Mike Leach mid-week in the morning was to go to a local coffee shop. I tried two coffee shops on Main Street. Coffee was good, but no Mike.
-Tacos on Grand & Whitman outside of this abandoned train station were worth the stop.
-Parked and walked around Martin Stadium and then tried to somehow get inside to no avail. But i was easily able to get inside the building and walk around the athletic offices. People were very friendly.
-Drove around to the east side of campus and viewed the Bears
-On my way out of town I checked out the Bill Chipman bike trail which is a converted train track. Starts in Pullman just east of Bishop Blvd and mirrors 270 towards Moscow, ID for 7 miles
-Finally, for those curious what the "Palouse" means. I discovered its and Indian word meaning "vegetation coming up out of the ground". Referring to the agriculture of the region. This is according to the lady at the Pullman Visitors Bureau.
I did go out that night in Pullman as well, but alas it was a Wednesday and nothing was really going on that night.

Look at their schedule including non-conference and tell me they shouldnt be just as excited as we are to be playing in San Antonio.
We??? Um your hawks are playing somewhere else little brother.

Leach didn't get paid for his last year there...what do you think of his odds going back lol
I'll say I would be absolutely shocked if David decided not to play.
Go head and bow down to this Washington State fan. Typical. Guy comes on here and first thing he says is they are "bitter" about playing a program like Iowa State in such a crappy bowl. If this isnt the most patronizing way to start off a post I dont know what is.
I mean, a snowstorm doesnt happen against Washington and all of a sudden they think they should have been playing Alabama instead of us. We wont even get into the fact they could have been 8-4 or 7-5 just as easily.
The only question I really have for WSU fans, is Leech still locking players in tool sheds?
Below is the OP. At what point is it stated they're bitter about playing ISU? They're bitter about not getting into a better bowl, like ISU fans have been when they screwed up the Big 12 North title those few years.
"What you want to know?
But first:
Yes WSU fans are bitter, but expect that to last about 12 hours as this is our record 4th bowl in a row. WSU fans travel well, very well and will sell way more tickets then you think.
This is a good football team and they play very good defense. Should be a fun game."
He said they were bitter. You made up the next part. You're trying to act like we (as in CF, not whatever affiliation you troll with) wouldn't act the same way if we were in their situation? Grow up or shut the **** up
Alabama in Alamo bowl = bitter fans
WSU in Alamo bowl = ecstatic fans considering their program compared to ISU
Guessing Ames is the same
oh god he told em to shove it last Sunday night.
Someone even created a fake flight 2 days in a row monday and Tuesday from Lubbock to Pullman and back and someone found it on the second day. WSU and tech fans were losing their collective minds on chat boards. Someone even staked out the airport and it never showed up.

About not getting a better bowl.
Nothing was said about ISU's program.
Why is this so hard to get, and why are fans so quick to be combative with an opponents' fan that's just checking in?
