Will be for the student section only. Wish they would hand them out to everyone, would look a lot better on TV. Plus we'd all like a souvenir from when ISU took down 2 top AP 5 teams in one season.

Swing and miss by the AD. That's twice this year by my count.

Looks like I'll need to trade a student a be.. soda for a towel haha
Sponsored by Chevy dealerships, given to the one section that can't afford to buy new vehicles.
Maybe not the best marketing ploy.

Let’s get the call put out, bring your own like the Steelers do. That way both of the schools in the state can have stolen something from the Steelers.

In all fairness, the Chevy sponsor is paying for the towels and probably did not want to do the whole stadium.
Granted, maybe the athletic department could find more sponsors to put on the towels and increase the amount but yeah.
I think HyVee was the gold towel sponsor for the OK State upset towel. Chevy did red rally towels a few years ago vs TCU on homecoming for students only as well. Chevy also did plain white towels several years ago vs A&M (at least I think it was A&M). Those towels had NOTHING ISU on on them just a chevy logo haha.

Bad move by Chevy, then. These things cost them less than a quarter apiece, being generous to pad the cost.
I have a white towel from Homecoming 2010 vs Kansas from a Chevy dealer. And we won!
These might have been intended to be for students only. I just know I got a few!
It seems like a thing where unless you do the whole stadium its kind of pointless.
New and improved rally towel. Are we boycotting Chevy until they get less cheap with promotions and more cheap with their vehicles?
