If only. Put in for the lottery multiple times, no joy. Do they even still have one?

Shoutout to @Cycsk for the emergency invite to the CF table a few years ago.

Heaven is a nightly trivia match in Hilton surrounded by ISU fans, players, and coaches. Plus free food and beer!

Hoping for another successful Cy's House of Trivia this Saturday. Let's go!

Team Schmiedums here.
So by successful do you mean well attended, or your team doing well?
I'll be there but if we finish in the top half it will be a good night for us.
It is a great event that I enjoy going to after being a multi yr sub, I got on a yr or 2 ago when the team rearranged.

Well you sort of pay for the food and beer upfront.;)

That is the same story for our team. We are very bad at trivia. We usually do alright, until a round of name that song an artist pops up and then we are sunk.

Neither myself nor ISU3pointland will be with our usual team this year (prior commitments that, of course, fell on this upcoming weekend. We have ringer subs to fill in the spaces - lol. Hope everyone has a great time and drinks their body weight in beer! Or at least eats it in wings...
:cool:

Lottery is for if a table opens up. In the past this was a AD fund raiser not sure if they've reallocate it or not @brentblum can you enlighten us?
Still an AD fundraiser. I’ve actually inquired if they could run a second one that would help NIL and waiting to hear if that would be possible. It’s such a great event and there is demand for more.

What if a 3rd party just accidentally drops a Venmo QR code on the tables as they make rounds to speak to their fellow cyclones…:cool::jimlad:

I love the way you think. Cy's House has become this locked down event for big donors and those who were lucky enough to get in during its early years. It really needs to be opened up to more fans. Perhaps the NIL need will finally be the reason it happens. Keep up the good work Brent.

Can’t wait, 89th two years ago, 46th last year. Trending up!

Had to hit the transfer portal, hoping the new couple is Curtis Jones, not Merril Holdin.

Sometimes it's just dumb luck too. My group lucked out and was next in line right after covid and was able to secure a table....we are far from big donors. It's a fun night and finding a way to incorporate NIL would be amazing!
