Kudos to the KU band for staying in their seats after the game until the crowd cleared. Very professional!

I was prepared to assault the band
I never understood kids who raced home for Thanksgiving, or refused to come back when the game was after Thanksgiving
I think after the Iowa fiasco, ISU officials aren't taking any chances and telling the other bands to wait longer to leave.
Plus, they didn't win so no feeling of 'cockiness' to go along with the natural dooshiness of having 'hawk' in your name.
That was what the Texas band was saying to me last week. I told them it's all Iowa's fault your having to wait longer.
Went out at half to our vehicle parked in C6. Cops on bikes had a young adult surrounding him. Heard the kid say, "I know I'm drunk!". I decided it was time to open the backdoor of our van, cracked open a beer and sat on the back of the van to watch the festivities. Was not disappointed. Young adult got agitated and started to try and get physical. Well, it was all down hill from there. The cuffs came out and the guy walked with the police as led him away. Good thing they left. I got up and a small trash bag of empty cans fell out.

So what was the attendance in house yesterday. We went to Minneaota/Noorthwestern yesterday and there weren't 20000k even there and at least half were Gopher fans. Tickets were like 2 for $10. ($5 apiece). I used to think tickets were to expensive for fami lies but unless it's a really,really big game and the weather's nice tickets are pretty affordable for most games. Sometimes peop!e can't even give tiickets away.
That's awesome. We would have gone but we were out of town. Except for cheap beer I would much rather go to a game then watch on TV. Unfortunately as every year goes by fewer and fewer people seem to think that way.
I had a couple of those, including that play. But let's face it, that was a dumb pass in to double coverage. My other was yelling at Brock to run on a scramble just before he found Breece for a touchdown down the sideline.
There was a Hawk fan in our section. We were laughing at him because he was sitting under a blanket and wearing knitted mittens. Man card revoked.
Well, it was probably too much money to buy Kansas coats just to be douches, so this was the best they could do.
Students go home for the weekend in droves @ ISU— during entire school year , Especially small townie folks. I have old family members who graduated in the 1950’s who said the same thing.
I was gonna say. That’s one big ass stadium if it can hold 20,000,000 people.
Like your computer hasn't been to questionable sites before.
On the student attendance:
I think since we are sports fans (otherwise why would we be on CF?) we take for granted that ALL students are as well. They are not. Both my kids went to ISU; one boy engineer, one girl liberal arts. Based on their friends and acquaintances, I'd estimate about 50% of students don't like sports at all, even casually, and will actively avoid games. Maybe 10-20% actually care and follow football and bball.
On the Kansas band:
give them a break, this was the biggest crowd they will ever get to play in front of!
