And here's what greets me. Don't tell me Cyclone fans aren't invested. Ha.
So, I walk into Bramlage last night 1.5 hours before the game ...
- Thread starter surly
- Start date
No doubt. I watched the game on TV and Mrs. Velo even joined me for most of it. I think she believes the Cyclones can get this done but knows they could use a little help.And here's what greets me. Don't tell me Cyclone fans aren't invested. Ha.
It's not unusual to see ISU gear in Manhattan. But at the Ku game and 1.5 hours before tip? I mean, I wonder about myself sometimes, but those two took the cake and ate the whole damn thing. I told them they were a couple weeks early. Laugher. 
I don't like it. Zero point in wearing Iowa State apparel to a game we're not involved in.
I can only assume they are ISU grads that have a kid that goes there and are too ashamed to actually wear Kstate gear.
Agree, but will also say that the HS I transferred to my senior year had purple as a color and it is basically the worst color to have as a school color. It just blows, so those folks may have tried it and found it to stink.
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that K State blew a 17 point 4th Quarter lead at JTS
aTm fans used to attend the K-State/UT game and cheer for the Wildcats. It happened on more than one occasion. Maybe the ISU folks were there to show support against a recognized villain, Ku.

Has any Cyclone fan actually told you that they weren't invested? Because judging by the game thread in here, last night, and knowing how closely I watched the game, I'd say we're quite invested.And here's what greets me. Don't tell me Cyclone fans aren't invested. Ha.
Yeah, several said Ku would win the game. So, I guess they were invested in a different sort of way. Still, have you ever seen fans of another school in Hilton wearing their colors to a game in which their team wasn't a contestant?
Just like there's always that one ****** who is wearing hawk apparel, no matter what kind of sporting even it is. SEC football game to a D3 women's basketball game to 6 year old tee-ball.
Yes. Frequently. ToE dbags do it all the time. I've seen KU as well. And as a matter of fact, I know a guy getting his masters at ISU who got his undergrad from KState and will sport KState stuff in Hilton.

You realize that we share a state with the Hawkeyes, right? They wear their gear to all kinds of events that they aren't involved in... or invited to, for that matter.
Yes, I have seen Iowa fans attend games in Hilton when they weren't involved. I see it a lot in MLB and the NFL, too. I personally wouldn't do it, but I assume that some people are sports fans and take the opportunity to represent their team, regardless of who's playing. If the people are respectful, I guess I don't really care.
So does this mean you cant wear Iowa State gear to the NCAA in Des Moines if we arent playing there? Asking for a friend.......
Yeah, I'm expecting to see Hawkeye gear at the next funeral I attend in Eastern Iowa.
