Why I hate Parents Weekend
- Thread starter EJ4CY
- Start date
1. I think what EJ4CY is not mentioning is that at least 2 people form his group had to stand up the entire time. That is what happens when you invite a friend to come and squeeze into your seats. Either you stand or you make the guy next to you hold his son for the duration of the game so you can slide down and have a seat. I don't care if you stand, but if you need to sit by your friends go over to the hill. (If you were NOT the guy on the north end of section 20, row 6, then I apologize.)
2. As far as standing- its your right. IMO, there is a time to stand and cheer: 3rd down, 2nd and long, after a big play etc. I think to stand for the full game is inconsiderate to those behind you. My grandparents go to the games and I know that they can't stand for that long. A lot of people bring their kids and when everyone stands they have to hold them up so they can see.
To me its like farting in an elevator, its your right, but it's inconsiderate. You can bark all day about how its your right, but if I am behind you, IT STINKS.

LOL...you might get really upset if you found out how much they pay me to get tattooed and "fred durst growl"....i'm seriously starting to hate iowa state fans. you guys are bunch of sallys
also, to the guy that said i read at a second grade level, there are 8 of my students on this board...yes, i taught at isu while i was getting my master's degree in genetics....i've lived in omaha for about 5 years now and i have to admit, the people on this board are about as jacked up as husker fans...bunch of whiney little babies
My basic point of this is that there are seven of us who have had season tickets in the same seats for the last four years (no one else is squeezing in) just us seven; and it is extremely frusturating for someone who has never had season tickets, or sat in our section to tell us to do something different than we have been doing for four consecutive years with no complaints.
Well duh,
We don't have the bad*** tattoos!
Wow, nothing says hardcore more than telling someone how much you get paid to get a tattoo and impersonate Fred Durst. Bravo.
Totally agree with everything said here.
I act just like you when I am at the Jack. Which is for every game.
I would like to think we could show some more respect as fellow Cyclone fans for those who may be older and not able to stand as often as some of you seem to expect out of "everyone" and to families with kids who even if they were standing could probably not see over adults who choose to stand the whole game... saw this happen on Saturday night on the hillside....two chose to stand the entire game in front of 100+ people, many of whom were families with kids.... despite being asked several times to move or sit...were just ignored...its not like they had "seats"... and its not like they were there at 4:30 to claim there spots.
Amen brother, Amen. Feel like im in the Library sometimes on D with the bunch I sit around. I need to sit by some Hellraisers!!
