I agree the enthusiasm seems down, even with the great opponent and destination. The 7-5 record when we were hoping for more, the K State bad loss, the fact we never blow anybody out except for one game, been bowling recently, and can't drive to the game are big factors. But hey, that happens to all the good colleges. Clone fans are great though. Props to the fans going to this game and representing Cyclone Nation. Hope that Joe Cool Bahama guy is going. Loved that double drink within 30 seconds.
Who is going Camping!!!!
- Thread starter tolfbfan
- Start date
We are both remembering and confirming the same time frame. The couple hour difference is the time it would take the squall to travel from Coco to Orlando.I hope it's closer to your time memory than mine currently - otherwise, they might have a rather damp end to the game.
A must-have for tailgating before a game with Notre Dame:
Sorry I just drank it all lol
The forecast went from 40% chance rain last week to 10% on Saturday
--now @ 50%-70% chance of passing rain on Saturday
Very excited to find out this matchup 2 weeks ago.....went with a charter out of DM - a wing and a prayer (no pun intended). I jumped the gun
~a 4-day charter trip > No flight details until a week later
~ Purchased game tickets first day 'best available' thru ISU @ $125/ea.
> ended up in upper corner --deck
Day 1 plane arrives in Orlando after 8:00 pm ; seriously?
Day 4; bus leaves for airport @ 5:30 am ! seriously?
So a so-called 4-day trip turns into basically 2 days in Orlando
Good lord. I should of gone with my instincts
ex.
Fly in a few days early to Tampa/St Pete/Ft Myers (warmer weather)
Stay at a quiet resort
Bought (2) tickets for $25/ea
Commute up to ISU bowl game;
Return to SW Florida for warmer weather
Oh well
Merry Christmas to ISU Alumni Assoc.! I'll consider it a donation

That stinks about the rain. Wonder if that favors ND or us more?The forecast went from 40% chance rain last week to 10% on Saturday

I started a new thread for our CF tailgate. It is coming together nicely. Lot 7 just southeast of the stadium. Look for the 40 foot flagpole!

Just getting settled into our pit stop hotel. Excited to get down there tomorrow. Are most people getting there tomorrow too?
My daughter and I are at our pit stop in Kentucky tonight. Arriving in Orlando Thursday. One day for some fun at Universal studios then focus on the pep rally and game.
Just checked in for my flight tomorrow and Delta was offered a range of dollar amounts to get bumped, sort of bid like thingie in hundred dollar increments starting at $200. Had to pass that up, got a hotel and don't want to chance miss sitting in the rain Saturday.

@isufbcurt did you bring your race car trailer? We saw someone with Iowa State plates on a race car hauler around Forsyth, GA today.
