The Truth (with no dare involved) .........
- Thread starter Balrog
- Start date
I was the guy who got Brian Bosworth His hot dogs when they blowing ISU out at halftime of the game in Ames.
I was on the sidelines and he and some other players realized I was staring at them like a puppy and he told me he would give me his game pads if I went and got them some hot dogs. When he came back out after halftime he and some other players had there shoulder pads off. I got them there hot dogs and still have the game used pads at my parents house. It made the papers the next day and Barry Switzer publicly appologized to our fans and coaches. I guess he did not know one of our fans (me) got the hot dogs.

I completely rejected Seneca Wallace during a pick up game of bball at the rec, he was less than amused.
I had to guard Jamaal Tinsley in another game and I think he did every "street-ball" trick in the book on me and they all worked.

Diante's done that to me as recently as last spring :no:
Let me tell you though, you get Diante, Cam Lee, Boozer, and Jiri on your team in a pickup game, you don't have to do much!
Worked on a group project with Sage Rosenfels in English 302 my jr. year.
Sold many a video game/camera/electronics item to many an athlete during my time as Electronics team lead at Target:
- VCR/DVD combo to Fizer
- Many video games to Cael
- Camera to Seneca and his dad (who took my pen from me when signing his credit card receipt!
)

We used to work alot of the football players quite a bit in basketball. JJ Moses would shoot every time he gets the ball and rarely came close to the basket.
Then we had two of our best pitchers severely sprain their ankles in one week and were barred from playing.

My uncle still talks about that game. That was the first game he ever attended. And he remembers seeing their stud QB Jamel Holloway coming out at halftime without his pads on, eating a hot dog. He thought that was pretty hilarious. I'll have to let him know your story. He'd get a kick out of it, I'm sure!
:biglaugh:
Ev Cochrane died several years ago, so there's probably no reason to call him a db (whether he was or not, business wise), and his son, Ev Jr, is to my impression a really nice guy and doesn't deserve to hear his deceased dad trashed.
Since you only want one, years ago I did a column online and series with Johnny during March Madness, after he retired. That led to a number of really cool long distance conversations. Johnny wouldn't know me from Adam to see me, but I hope he'd recognize my voice.
And before any of you ask, I'll be damned if I'm going to pass any of Johnny's outrageous stories across the interweb. :biggrin:
Oh yes, and I'm not Jamie Pollard. Oh damn, that's two, isn't it? :wink:
Another fun story that was brought back to my attention talking to some buddies last night. Tyease Thompson and Jerry Gair stole my buddy's computer in Larch back in the 04-05 year, in the incident that lead to their dismissal. The cops didn't give it back to my buddy for a month, using it as "evidence". Two weeks later, he drank a bunch of Hawkeye Vodka one night, and harfed all over it. Those two were always hanging around our dorm, always acting like they were up to something (turns out they were). Couple of creeps/lowlifes, imo...
No direct association with Cyclone teams... but have had season football tickets since my freshman year in college - 1984 to present. Season MBB tix the last two years.
We had a group of 22 season tickets at the peak, we're down from that now as people have gotten their own NCC memberships and season tix.
Was in Phoneix for the Insight.com Bowl and had a great, great time!
Go Clones... pull off the upset this weekend!!

I sat next to Tony Rampton in a big class one time. I think it was Geography. I skipped a lot though.
I ate lunch with Bankhead at Friley a couple of times.
I was looking at the workstudy job board one day, and a guy was standing next to me for a while looking at the jobs. When he finally turned to go I realized it was Tim Floyd. Wish I'd seen that Bulls job before he did.
My cousin plays on the women's basketball team. Started most of the year last year.
Men's and Women's BB season ticket holder.

I was once bounced from an Ames bar by 400 pound All American wrestler Chris Taylor. I did not argue with him. (true story)
Recruited for Single Wing football at ISU a long time ago, funny how SPINAL TAPS take out your football playing days. Graduated finally in 1971. Started going to ISU games in mid 50's, hooked ever since.
Knew all the coaches of every sport back then as they all charged gas at the gas station I worked at during ISU days.
Met Shirley Majors many times when he visited his famous son, Johnny Majors.
Knew Frank Spedding, the famous atomic scientist of the Manhattan project.
Made the mistake of taking our wives to the last ISU victory BIG Eight title game in KC and to the first ISU Big 12 title in KC. Now they expect similar results every yr. Wish it were so.
Been to Shreveport and Phoenix for ISU Bowl victories and to Houston for the loss.
Helped celebrate ruining Norm Stewart's birthday in ISU victory in Columbia bus trip.
I love ISU as much as I hate the overbearing Aholes from the east. I am just more vocal about hating the hackeyes. Never seen a good hackeye crawl out of the outhouse pit they originate from.
Go State & don't be late:yes: to the game
