    Iowa State seating ?

    I'll make the obvious replies. Nothing is reserved at this point. First, unlesss you buy your tickets through the athletic department in the "ISU section", which high donors get a chance at these, then you buy them through AXS or the secondary market and get what is available. Second, this is...

    KC vs St. Louis

    Some comparisons not brought up. (I live in KC Metro and have been to StL many, many times for both work and pleasure.) KC - Foodwise, known for some of the best BBQ in the country, and a quickly growing and great "foodie" scene, and some fantastic higher-end restaurants that can compete with...

    Brats! Summer grilling.

    Anything from Bichelmeyer Meats in Kansas City, KS. I especially like the chicken brats smoked on my barrel smoker! Stop by Bichelmeyer' when you are in KC for the next Big 12 event - maybe for tailgating ahead of the Cyclones vs. Jayhawks Football game at Arrowhead on November 9th!

    Big XII Tournament Virgin

    If you like a large selection of whiskey, just south down the street a couple of blocks from the T-Mobile Center is The Belfry at 1532 Grand. A small food menu, but great food. The Owner/Chef is a James Beard award winner.

    Are we even a tournament team?

    I seem to remember towards the end of last season we had one of the ugliest games in Hilton against OSU I ever remember watching and we got blown out by TT in the B12 Tournament.....we ended up being a Sweet 16 team. Patience, we are in no way a perfect team and it shows. But we do have the...

    Texas game is on the Longhorn Network

    Being down in KC I will just listen to the Clones broadcast on my Sirius XM streaming app....Spectrum Cable does not have an option to even add the LHN.

    Best Cyclone MBB Wins Against the Jayhawks

    January 14, 1957 - Iowa State and Gary Thompson defeats the Jayhawks and Wilt Chamberlain 39-37 at the Armory. KU's only league loss that year. I did not see it as I was born in 1963, but my father in law did.

    Water filter in Ames

    Although I am personally in favor of both fluoride and disinfectants in the water, you are best to get a single point of use system that goes under your sink for water you want to use for consumption and cooking. You won't waste money on extra treatment for water that is used for gardening...

    Laptop vs Surface Pro

    I have had a Surface Pro at work for a few years now. I would not buy one for myself as I have had several dock failures and the keyboard has syncing and connection issues. If the laptop is more powerful and will run videos better, then get the laptop. Likely more reliable......

    Vaccine reactions

    Had my second Pfizer last Friday. Some body aches that evening, a minor headache, and some dizziness. Woke up Saturday morning and ran a 5K - no other issues. The first Pfizer dose gave me a nagging headache for about four days. I had a "minor" case of COVID-19 early November and it knocked...

    College choices-Academic

    If it is engineering or a math type degree, especially math, unless he wants to go into education, then take the money for the undergrad. The grad school is going to define what his future will hold, not the undergrad. Check the NM scholarship offers if it is for four years or five years. The...

    *** Official Iowa State Season Thread ***

    I hope at least one is K-State - maybe the last best chance to win, but I won't hold my breath on K-State or the best chance to win. I really want to see them play all the games they can - it may be painful to watch, but I still want to be able to watch all the Cylcones' games I can. I would...

    Iowa State Wrestling tournament

    I attended Don Bosco and when I was there I remember at that time them being the first team to take the entire team to State with 9 placing and a few champions. Of course, I played basketball and we were like 3-18!! I am 5'-9" and played center most of the time....and no, we did not recruit...
