I recall a story about Switzer bringing out his starters in street clothes after halftime in Ames. I can't confirm it using the interwebs. Did that actually happen, or is it Iowa State black humor?
Fact or myth?

I don't think it was street clothes, but it might as well have been. What I remember is that some of the starters took their jerseys and shoulder pads off and bought hot dogs from the aisle vendors and had a party on the bench during the 2nd half. Switzer probably reveled in it. He might be the king delta bravo of all time among college coaches, in any sport.
It did. I got my pic taken with the Boz in the 4th qtr in the concourse. He was wearing zubaz while he was eating a hotdog.

This is the wrong forum, but doesn't deserve a thread of its own.
I was once told the wood panels that make up the hilton ceiling are the old floor from the armory. I've never found that anywhere and am too young to have been around when that happened. Is that legit?

This has to be a joke. It takes so long to get food at an ISU game that Boz would've missed the end of the game
8 year old DurangoCy got hungry before a little league game and bought a hot dog - 30 minutes pregame. Likely because I was doing chores until 10 minutes before we had to leave for the game.
My d-bag coach reamed me out and sat me. He would not have stood for such shenanigans by OU players. ...or 8 year olds.

Yes the story is a "True Fact" as a drinking buddy of mine likes to point out. It was during the glory years of Switzer at OU. The hot doggers were the Selmon brothers who were dominant on defense and Barry had them out of the game. They were on the bench eating hot dogs in the 2nd half and I saw pictures of validation. Switzer always had cheap shot comments about going to Ames back in that era which were painfully true but drew big laffs at OU functions.
