I have a Scotland/Northern Ireland/Ireland trip on my mind in the next few years anyway. Not sure if taking the kids out of school for 10 days is acceptable, is it? It's not like you learn much in elementary school, right?
Nice I donate 0 and don't have season tickets.Just a guess, but I'd start by taking what you pay for season football tickets and donations. Double that. Then double it again.

Think of the History, Geography and culture they will see first hand! Take them to a Castle! They will be show and tell heroes when they get back, just don't let them take your Guinness empties to school, leave them in Ireland.I have a Scotland/Northern Ireland/Ireland trip on my mind in the next few years anyway.

Well I think it will help recruiting immensely..As long as we don’t lose a game at Jack Trice, fine.. but still pretty dumb
Okie St plays at Tulsa frequently in seasons of only 6 home games.Well I think it will help recruiting immensely.
what's really DUMB is home & home w/ crud teams like Arkansas St and Bowling Green. Geezus Pollard. Stop this nonsense
There is absolutely ZERO reason ISU should be traveling to these places and forfeit a 7th home game every other season.. We not only had 6 home games in 2023--we went on the road and lost to FREAKING OHIO.
U of Iowa NEVER stoops this low. This is bush league stuff.
Give them credit. They pay teams like this to travel to Kinnick every season and guarantee 7 home games

Not on aer lingus
I get, and agree, with your point that teams need to go on road sometimesOkie St plays at Tulsa frequently in seasons of only 6 home games.
KState plays at Tulane this year and only 6 home games.
Utah plays at Utah St this year and only 6 home games.
TCU plays at SMU this year and only 6 home games.
It happens.
Grow a pair, Guinness on tap.Ireland have Busch Light?
Just looked on their site for flights from Chicago for late August (this year) and it came out to just over $800/person. That was for Monday to Monday travel, with cheapest flight times, with 2nd tier economy rate option (bottom tier doesn't include a checked bag and has change fees/non-refundable). When you add in drive time/gas/parking in Chicago, you're looking at $1,000/person.
You might be able to get it down a little on a different date (though depending on timing you might have to add a hotel in Chicago on one end), and if you can slum it with only a carry on and a middle seat for 7-8 hours. Point being, $1k/person is probably fairly accurate for most people.
Yep totally agree.I get, and agree, with your point that teams need to go on road sometimes
But all those opponents are better teams and fan destinations than ISU going to Jonesboro or bowling green
Just don't do the shot they call a car bomb here and call it a car bomb over there. Also, don't call it a black and tan over there.Grow a pair, Guinness on tap.
If ISU and K State aren't going to be playing Gaelic Football in this game what are we even doing here.K-State boards are picking up on a rumor that Kansas State vs. Iowa State has been selected as the season opening game in Ireland in 2025. (It would mean K-State would lose a home game.)
I think a Week 0 game would be on August 23, 2025, for the serious planners-ahead.
Anybody heard anything about this on our side? Still squarely in rumor zone here.
