OK, not to be the parade pee-er on-er, but as a guy who lives in the Iowa City area and sees "CyCLOWN" shirts and stuff...they look like morons. While I laughed at these when I saw them, and I do like the overall message, when someone asked if I wanted to go in on a group that was ordering them, I politely declined. Do I get a kick out of them, yes. Would I actually wear one? No. I'd rather wear a legit ISU shirt than a "poke fun of Iowa shirt".

Now, if you're in the Ag industry, I would also then say, you have the right.

I think there's a slight intelligence level difference between simply putting "Cyclown" on a shirt, and the backstory/reasoning behind the AHF shirts.

And while it is a jab at Iowa, it's not just putting them down... It's promoting ISU's dedication to helping out the ag community.

Solid post. This is exactly how I feel about it. So much more intelligent than an efff _____ shirt or cyCLOWN shirt. And it promotes our great Ag College.

I took a big shot to the stones yesterday. I was listening to the radio the other day and heard Jodi Ernst and Chuck Grassley both do a "Countdown to Kickoff" for Hawkeye Football on their radio advertising. 2 large players in Agricultural Politics telling us to get excited for Hawkeye Football. I understand they had to do it, and I understand they would look foolish to say no, but come on man do the right thing!!

I will preface this post by saying this is my store and I would make some money off of each sale. Additionally 20% of all sales from this shirt will be donated to the Coalition to Support Iowa's Farmers. I am hoping to add more farm themed shirts to my Iowa themed store in the near future.

Are these skin tight shirts that are not made for anyone that is not supper skinny or regular fitting shirts for the rest of us.
