Idk, it was weird. Reminded me of sooner basketball games in Norman. Just felt weird.
Gameday Host
- Thread starter AllInForISU
- Start date
I'd prefer the band. Biut not if they continue to play stuff by racist Morgan Wallen.
I live near the Ankeny closure so I'm familiar with that. Didn't know about Ames and would have inevitably found out the hard way. Very nearly did today.
What are you talking about? We aren't allowed to have beer in the stadium..lol
All 3 of my kids, ages 17-24 thought she was annoying. Are you talking the 10 year old kids?
Sukup end zone, club section and boxes all have alcohol. Most of us savages can only hope to sneak in a few fireball shots
I never liked the policy of leave and reentry after half time. The 2nd half kickoff with the stands half empty looks bad. But I can't blame anyone for not coming back in after this crazy lady screamed at them during the breaks in the 1st half. She's just awful.
Yeah. There was some crazy lady screaming at everyone.
Everyone has touched on it, but I'm also not a fan of having an in-stadium hype person. It's not fitting of the college football experience. More college, less corporate and we will be on the right track.
Not a fan of throwing a QR code on the big screen and getting everyone on their phones for trivia. Make it crowd participatory on the jumbotron. Keep people engaged with the game, not with their phone.
Some might think this is the view of a curmudgeon, but I was in the student section until this year. People all ages want the college gameday experience. It works like magic.

You know, maybe the construction crew just needs a little motivation and some hype woman to get them going every morning. You've given me an idea...
I think someone already said something like this but game day host is more for professional sports with longer seasons imo. The guy that does it for the Minnesota Twins is good.
Anyone who goes to Iowa Wild games (triple A version of hockey) is familiar with her. She absolutely in no way deserves to have a job in Jack Trice Stadium. She belongs at Wells Fargo (barely) trying to "pump up" crowds of 1k-5k...63k Jack Trice Stadium? No way. This didn't need to happen. ISU needs to abort it. Hiring a hawk fan for this job was just stupid.
I'm hoping someone with more knowledge than I have of monsters knows how to defeat a banshee.
I think that’s more that the Twins have some terrific content to go along with it. The “celebrities” in the crowd is pretty great. Even the more lame sponsorship things are far more entertaining than anything between game action at ISU. Granted, personnel and production budgets are a wee bit different I’m sure.
Back when she had long hair during the CW Morning Show days with Lou....
Sweet Jesus, oh my god she was STUNNING!!!!
Not so much anymore with the short hair. Just not her look.
What am I saying? Still would.
An opponent's 23 play 12.5 minute drive for a field goal in front of a sun baked crowd will tend to quiet down a stadium. UND put the sleeper hold on us.
If you had to sit on the east side staring into the blazing sun for 3+ hours, I'm guessing you might have left early too.
I'm so glad I switched over to the west side of the stadium a few years ago. I sit in the top row of the lower bowl and I was in the shade the entire game. Felt bad for everyone sitting on the east side.
