IN STATE FAN rivals stories?

Too long and stupid to delve into. But had a run in back in Dubuque at a wedding in the summer of 2002 with some hawk fans, 1 in particular whose son was on the hawk team that year. Drunk off his arse. Got heated and acted as if he were personally insulted that I would ever be an ISU fan, and plenty of name calling. Really wanted to knock his block off.
There ended up being a wager put on the game just so I could just get away from him.
Thank you Seneca.
And no, I never got paid. Common theme with iowa fans I find.

A picture is worth a thousand words.
Every time I see this I wonder if he was drunk or if the stagger is just him losing balance because of his big Hawk belly. I kinda think he was probably drunk.
I was once talking to this Hawkeye fan who was hyping up this basketball recruit they were getting in and talking about all of his stats against poor competition. When I asked him why no other schools recruited or offered him if he was so good he told me it was because his coach wouldn't allow other schools to offer so he would for sure go to Iowa. True story.
Well I doubt he has the brain power to do two things at once and he's kinda rubbing his belly there.
It's like that "rub belly, pat head" coordination thing. Just substitute "pat head" with "remain standing"
My last experience to Iowa City, I was sitting in the end zone on the North side of the stadium. It was a normal IOWA ..ISU heated game and I was sitting amongst the Hawkeye faithful. Noting this, ( after all I did graduate from ISU) I cheered only FOR ISU and not against the Hawkeyes. Every time I would stand and clap for something good that ISU did I was booed and cursed at (very colorful language from the Walmart Hawks I will add).
Into the end of the 2nd Qt ISU had just recovered a fumble, and as I stood up I was shoved from behind. I let it go, again, I graduated from ISU and new the odds were against me.( NOW I stand 6'4" and 265# at the time so I could take care of myself.) Shortly after the fumble recovery, ISU scored. I again stood and cheered,as I did again I felt a hand begin to shove me...this time I reached back,grabbed the hand only to find that an older man whose hand I had was cussing me for standing and told me to sit the #*&! down. The scene got more out of control when his wife began tugging at his captured arm telling me to let him go, those who sat around me were pulling on my arm to aid him. I had NO intention to harm him but I did let him know that if he did it again, he would be launched into end zone. I sat back down, only to be greeted a short time after, by Iowa Cities best dressed security ( who I might add weren't much younger than the hawkfan I had encountered). They ask that I remove myself from the seat and to leave the stadium... I did as they requested without making any effort to explain.. and as I was leaving, the crowd was cheering the security for taking me out..( it was the only thing they had to cheer about all day). Haven't been back since.

Bet between my buddy and I on the 2012 basketball game(we lost). Loser had to buy their team's shirt and hat, then wear it to the 2013 Football Game (had to wear it all day, couldn't cover it up). I did the honorable thing and bought a fake mustache and wore the biggest aviators I could find. I looked like the worlds biggest pedophile especially in that ugly black and gold stuff (so a typical hok fan).
Was at the Cedar Rapids downtown farmers market a couple of years ago and I had on my ISU hat and a t-shirt. I was talking with some friends and noticed that a baby had dropped her binky on the ground so I stooped to pick it up and heard don't touch that. I looked up and the dad of the baby was wearing HOK clothes and he told me that HIS baby would not allow me to touch the binky because of what I was wearing. I was trying to be a gentleman and help out the little one and this *** clown had he nerve to put his prejudice of ISU onto his baby. I couldn't believe it so I dropped the thing back on the dirty street and left it there.
Had a relationship end once due to her being an Hok. We started dating in the summer, and it was no big deal at the time, since sports weren't going on. But once football started, every weekend it would be "Ha-ha, CyCLOWNS (loved using that pathetic insult) lost, how does it feel to suck?"
I'll admit I wasn't a bigger man at the time, and the comments really bothered me and I had to end it. She bled a little too much Black and Urine for my liking. Growing up in NE Iowa, it's slim pickings for women. You either find a woman who is a Hok fan, or one who doesn't like sports. There is no in between.

After isu beat iowa in ames for the 5th straight time had a couple of hawks take issue with me and a friend talking to ourselves about their fans not being as loud after the game. They were obnoxious before the game.
The hawks interrupted us. We weren't loud or talking to them. Some toothpick hawk starts running his arrogant mouth about wait till basketball and the usual excuses.
At one point I look away giving him the opportunity to let it drop because it wasn't going to go well for him. He then thinks this is a sign of weakness and starts acting like he wants to fight.
My friend and I at that point had enough and told him and his friend alright. His tone and his friends tone immediately changed and he throws out this line.
"We don't have jobs where we can show up with a black eye on Monday." Friend and I laughed about as hard as we could as they quietly slithered away.
hawk fan made bet if ISU won, he would tattoo my signature somewhere on his body. We won, hasn't spoke to me since.
