As this FB season draws to an end, I wanted to take a moment to reflect.
This has been the best FB season for me ever. What a blast. What a ton of great stories and memories.
A lot has to do with Hawkeye101 (Ron) and Marla being gracious hosts week in and week out. You were the central catalyst for sure. Thank you.
Secondly, I finally got to meet a lot of you guys and gals in person in Bloomington, Champaign, and Iowa FUCKIN City. The NW homecoming game (sans the score) was just crazy. The home-closer last week was a very close second. I won't list all the names but you know who we are.
I look forward to meeting more of you at whatever bowl game we play in. New life-long friends...neat, very neat.
In all sincerity, hats off to you hardcore fans, for being the best fans to the best FB program in America.
The Iowa Hawkeyes

A big cosign. They even allowed their tailgate to turn into a Montezuma east last weekend. With Ron and Marla's generosity and my little ticket story, I'm convinced Hawkeye fans are the best in the world.

Though I only made it to one, and briefly, you guys really are very neat people. I PROMISE to try to make it next year and get to you guys even better. I will 2nd the sentiments that Iowa fans are the best around, period.

Agreed. Even though I only made it up for one, I really enjoyed meeting many of you and putting faces with fake names. I'll have to see if I can talk the kindergarten teacher into making the trip next fall. Here's to ending the season on the right note at the Inflatable Toilet on Saturday. And for our gopher friends, never forget: All Your Goalpost Are Belong To Us www.blackheartgoldpants.com/2008/11/17/663481/how-are-you-gentlemen |

I'd have to agree with everything mentioned above. I got to go to more games than any other year before (5) and every game was an absolute blast.
Ron and Marla, you guys are awesome hosts and both the NW game and Purdue game were fun as hell hanging out. And Seth, thanks for the Crown pulls.
Can't beleive the season is almost over already, kind of depressing but there is always next year.
Also Seth, some guy on the other board was complaining about your shirt, there was some old lady wearing one and they gave her some good ribbing on Soundoff last night too.

Hey Roxx, you should tell your future wife to upload some of the pictures she took and post them on the board here.

I watched Soundoff last night and saw that too!!  Some old lady in the stand was wearing Seth's "Iowa Fuckin' City" t-shirt. I heard one of my friends that was tailgating with say that he saw that guy getting arrested that sold those t-shirts.  |

Since I live in a Hawkeye Free zone, sadly, can someone fill me in on the Iowa FUCKIN City deal? A buddy of mine posted pictures on facebook and he was wearing one as well...

Not much of a story, I don't think. Just a random shirt. This guy comes over to our group and has about 4 different options of t-shirts, and good ol' Seth buys the "Iowa Fuckin' City" shirt. I don't think he wore into the stadium though.

To be honest, my recollection is pretty foggy from about 9:30 - 3:00. I think those Crown pulls got on top of me. Of course the Jager bottle in my coat didn't help. What happened? |

I also met your lady friend...she's nice. And I'm guessing incredibly understanding. Somebody (not you) threw up after taking a swig of Crown Royal. |

Thanks for the hospitality. Seth, thanks for the Crown. Ron, thanks for the 100lbs of cheese that I ate. I'm trying to build up my tolerance for Madison.
Seth, what was the Tshirt that they were referring to?
Also, speaking of Madison, I can try to get a few extra tix for Iowa's game behind the cheddar curtain next year. However, you may have to take pulls on the bottle of Glenlivet.
I'm moving to Madison in one week. I just love moving...

Did you make it up to IC on Saturday Roxx? I wish I'd known that... Yeah, it was a total last minute decision. Shiloh and I decided to go late Friday afternoon. I forgot you were up there or I would have tried to get ahold of you. You didn't miss much. I was pretty well done for at about 10:30. I don't remember very much of the game at all. Typical Iowa game for me. lol |

Thanks for the props.
It's certainly been a fun season filled with meeting new friends, lots of partying and overall good times.
I too could have done without the dude who puked up his pull of Crown last Saturday, but if that's the worst thing that happened all season (I'll let the Itheus situation go for this particular thread), then so be it.
Here's to a great bowl game (you all are coming to wherever to party your asses off right?) and a great season next year.
