    2024 Firework Purchasing - Missouri?

    I've run out of my supply of fireworks purchased probably 3 years ago and it's time to reload. I have always made the run down to Missouri in the past because of their better selection and (at least this used to be the theory) their looser restrictions on types of fireworks that can be sold. I...

    Nitpicky Complaint - 3rd Down Crowd

    Ok this is trivial but it bugs me to no end. When we get to third down on D at JTS the speakers start blaring the music and everyone does the big clap thing. The problem is when they cut the music just before the snap there is next to no crowd noise because everyone was all into the dumb clap...

    Students - Get to Hilton!

    Just hoping that the students grab a friend or 2 and get to Hilton for these upcoming pre-conference games. If you have tickets use them and if you aren't using them get them to someone who will! It stinks when we have sellouts but then there are a couple hundred empty seats on that one end of...

    VEISHEA 2015

    So I'm sick of seeing the car chase thread at the top of the "Campus Life" area of the forums. You students planning a massive "non-VEISHEA" party this week? Someone got a dumpster ready to light?? Stick it to the man!

    NCAA Tickets for Des Moines

    Anyone else get the email about purchasing tickets for next year's tournament before they go on sale to everyone else? It says you can start today at 10am but the link in the email isn't working for me. Anyone else having problems or am I just missing something?

    Crowd Last Night

    I hadn't seen this really hit on in the game thread or any other individual threads so I apologize if I missed it. The crowd last night was the best one I can recall in recent memory for an early start (6pm) weekday game. Usually everyone strolls in around 6:30 and sits on their hands but wow it...

    Des Moines Auto Salvage Locations

    I need to find a hub cap for a car and Carney's here in Ames did not have the one I need. Does anyone know a good place or two to try down around Des Moines? I looked around online and it's just really tough to figure which ones are larger and may have more parts, thanks.

    Big XII Tournament - T.V. Coverage

    How pathetic is it that our tournament does not have all the games on some "major" network channel of some kind? I would think even the Wednesday night first round games should be on something, but beyond that, the Thursday late game is currently listed as only being carried online on ESPN3. I...

    Long John's Ames - Closed

    So, horrible start to my day today. Driving by Long John's in Ames and it says it's closed for good on the sign. Now where am I going to go to get my week's worth of calories in one meal?? :frown: I do have to say that the service, at least at the one in Ames, was pretty bad. Average wait time...

    Ice on Campus

    Anyone have any video of a wipeout from today on campus?? Or any stories? Always entertaining to see people trying to get around on days like this. I definitely slipped a couple times.

    Blown Call in A's-Indians Game

    Anyone else see this? Wow, how could you miss that home run call after reviewing the replay?? :eek: A's-Indians tilt takes controversial turn in ninth | MLB.com: News

    Roll Call - Dayton

    Sorry if I've missed something but I haven't seen a thread about who's making the trip. I'll be heading over, are we going to have a good showing??

    Notre Dame & Friends Conference?

    This is a crazy idea that popped into my head...how about the "outcasts" from the Big 12 get together with Notre Dame and make up their own conference (assuming ND won't join the Big 10). We can just bend over and take it from the Irish and give them a larger portion of the revenue than the rest...

    Locker Room/Workout Discussion Part 2

    So I get done working out today and I get back to the locker room and once again, I am apalled at what I see. Some old guy, probably about 75, has one leg up on the bench, naked as a jaybird, and has a huge bottle of Jergens out and is lotioning up every inch of his wrinkly body. Of course, he's...

    Cubs Blackouts

    So, in years past, us Cubs fans (and I am thinking Twins, Royals, White Sox, & Cardinals) have been bent over by MLB who claims that we are in the home market of about 5 different teams here in Iowa. Has anything changed with this or not? I am not looking forward to seeing the Cubs ESPN games...

    Thanksgiving Day NFL Games

    So Mike and Mike today were whining about having to watch the Lions every Thanksgiving and wish the league would change it up. I personally would rather have the Cowboys and Lions continue to play on Thanksgiving because I don't care about either of them. It's great to eat, cheer for whoever is...

    NFL Draft - Yay or Nay?

    With all the NFL Draft talk on the radio this last week or two I'm wondering if I'm the only one who doesn't really get all that excited about it. I am obviously interested in who my team drafts but I don't need to spend my day watching every second of the draft on t.v. I could read about it in...

    Baseball games on DirecTv

    So I currently have the "sports pack" on DirecTv which includes all of the Fox Sports Net Channels along with other random sports channels such as Comcast and the YES Network. Last week I enjoyed watching a lot of baseball games on these channels with no blackout problems. Now tonight I try to...
