HAWKEYE FOOTBALL

A few weeks ago I talked to an out of state friend. While we chatted, I kept talking about the upcoming Iowa game. Marc is not a big sports fan, and had never been to an Iowa Football game. He just could not understand my passion for Iowa Hawkeye Football. "What is the big deal about Iowa football?  That is all I hear people talking about," he asked.

  • Iowa Hawkeye football is best described as a crisp fall day with 70,000+ people chanting I .. O .. W ..A.
  • Hawkeye football is seeing a 9 month old at the game dressed in black and gold and thinking "If I had only been so lucky…".
  • Hawkeye football is the 60 year old from Sioux City who drives 6 hours every week to park his RV in someone's yard and then tailgates all day until the game.
  • Hawkeye football is wearing a black and gold shirt in Denver, CO and having somebody stick their head out of a car at a stoplight and scream "GO HAWKS!"
  • Hawkeye football is knowing at the tender age of 5 that the Cyclones are vicious evil-doers to be hated, but having no idea why.
  • Hawkeye football is a guy like Dallas Clark, who walks onto the team, 3 years later is a star, leaves a year early to play in the NFL, but was SO DAMN NICE that nobody can begrudge him for it.
  • Hawkeye football is having one of your starting offensive lineman graduate to go to med school!
  • Hawkeye football is the little black and gold flags waving off of every car antennae caravaning up and down I-80 and I-35 every Saturday on their way to Iowa City.
  • Hawkeye football is the bricks of Kinnick and the grass on the field with the smell in the air of some kind of meat barbecuing that will soon be put on a stick and sold to a tanked undergrad who can no longer speak as they are hoarse from screaming from the front row of the student section.
  • Hawkeye football is 12 weeks of getting up at 6 a.m. on Saturday mornings, drinking bloody marys and eating a bowl of chili on Melrose before the sun comes up.
  • Hawkeye football is being anywhere in Iowa City on a Saturday afternoon and hearing a dull roar come through the air and thinking… "Hmmm, we must've scored".
  • Hawkeye football is sitting in Kinnick with your out of state friend and have him turn to you and scream through the roar of the crowd, "I've never seen anything like this before … it's amazing."
    No, it's Iowa Hawkeye Football.
    GO HAWKS!!!!!
