Gary Barta everybody

[Alswelk]

FWIW, I did see something on one of the other Iowa message boards yesterday about how parents of UI marching band members were complaining that Iowa State fans were throwing objects at the UI band. I’m not sure what the objects were, and it was likely just a few people doing it, but this didn’t just come out of no where.

Which happens literally EVERY TIME the ISU band goes to Kinnick.

Yep, sure did. It's too bad you're a closet Hawk lover.... I feel for you. You should take something for that.

I thought that was you. Crazy story for sure.

I was referring more to the name of the company.

SOMEBODY JACKED OFF ON THE BAND?!

If that is true, then the Iowa fans doing that are real a-holes.

We should report it to B1G schools.

JP should tell Barta to tell his university to pay their contractors; then we'll address our fans "being mean" to the Iowa marching band.

The tautological Hawkeye truth reveals itself!!

I do appreciate the irony of you stating this in a thread full of people complaining about a tweet and threatening to boycott that company.

You guys literally whined so much about the Stanford band, that a lawmaker proposed a bill to have none of the state universities play them in the future.

 

[clonedude]

I think I've got this figured out now... Barta will try to file a lawsuit against ISU for this so he can use that money to pay the contractors. Brilliant.

 

[CloneLawman]

We should report it to B1G schools.

I think they already know.

Nah. The first 3 conference games are more important and the OU/UT games are more important. In fact, all our conference games are more important now that I think of it.

All conference games are more important.

Agreed. Gary Barta is nothing but a classy, equal opportunity, never jump to conclusions guy.

What would you expect him to do? It says students and staff. F-ing ignore it? How about we wait and see. What if there is cell phone video? We know next to nothing publicly.

 

[yowza]

Lol, what delicate little flowers.

We shall wait and see what was said and done and see if you stand by this statement.

 

[clonedude]

Barta sure is the gift that keeps on giving. Gotta love it!

I particularly love how he silently gave Franny a raise and extension in the middle of the night thinking that nobody would notice. That one was great.

The hack trolls will avoid this post because they know it's true.

 

[yowza]

I highly doubt whatever happened to the Hawkeye marching band is anything like hack fans dumping piss on the ISUCF'V'MB in the 2000s and screaming F*ck State at them last year. Go screw yourself Barta.

So what if discriminatory stuff was being stated? Is that the same as F State? You condone discriminatory statements? I am just speculating like everyone else is now.

Barta wrote letters to the big XII ADs before he had any info. What’s the diff.

 

[yowza]

All I'm going to say (as a former ISUCFVMB member who had the misfortune of going to 3 games at Kinnick) is lol.

So please you obviously know what happened Saturday night, please do state the exact details.

 

[CyBobby]

Just drop Iowa from the schedule already.

AMEN BRO.....These are the same fans in Kinnick who were going to beat up and 86 year old grandmother who was wearing Michigan State Colors .....TOE fans can dish it out but cant take it....

If there is so much Bull Shite going on between fan bases maybe its time to Cancel the Big Game!!
