Yup, WRNL. My sister knows the guys, picked a shirt up for her husband who is in his first year of farming after being an engineer for 15+ years.

I would really like one of these, it appears that they are out or they stopped taking orders over at WRNL. If someone has an extra large laying around they wouldn't mind parting with please PM me.

Is there any other places to get the AHF shirts?

Thanks!

So is this a little brotherish dig at Iowa? Or what is the message here? I legitimately don't understand the point of the shirt, not trying to be a ****.

Iowa has the whole "ANF" thing going on, America Needs Farmers. They are not an ag school and the University has nothing to do with the advancement of agriculture and farming. They made this a media ploy in the 80s farm crises.

Iowa State on the other hand has a College of Ag, univeristy research, and extension programs that are all for the development and advancement of agriculture.

Actions speak louder than words is the bottom line for me.

Fry: America Still Needs Farmers - Iowa Official Athletic Site

Fry knows how to market his team and he thought this might be a good way to win over many of Iowa's farmers who at that time didn't have an allegiance.

This phrase is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever read: "...Hayden Fry, the world's leading advocate of the vocation."

Wow!!!!! I refuse to go to the site but they can't be serious with that can they.

The Iowa farm bureau was dumb enough to bite however. Their whole ANF Farmstrong campaign with Iowa is a complete joke. I know of a couple very powerful people in ag who are very upset with farm bureau that membership money is being spent on something as stupid as that.
