I became a Clone fan by virtue of spending four years as an undergraduate student at ISU.

Grew up an Iowa fan in eastern Iowa, went to school at ISU and became an ISU fan.
Became a rabid ISU fan after school and found out what (*&^head some Iowa fans can be to ISU fans. The straw broke the camels back when one New Years we went out with 4 couples and 3 of the couples were ISU fans and one Iowa couple. The Iowa couple gave us *&^% all night about going to the "smurfbowl" that year.  | | | |

Parents were alums and they brought me to every hockey game since birth. I can tell you about every hockey player to ever play at Iowa State. My favorite was Eric Tofte.

Born into it, and although it has at times been tough, I am and always have been die hard Cardinal and Gold. All of my siblings (6) are Clones and either married Clone fans or converted their spouses. My kids (4 and 3/4) have "drank the kool-aid" and know fully well never to wear black and gold in any clothing combinations. The tradition lives on!

Went to graduate school at ISU. Went to a college without a football team and then came to ISU and watched the Cyclones tie Nebraska at Clyde Williams Field (197?) in the mud, the blood and the rain. That is how I became a Clone fan forever.

Raised in Ames, lived around ISU as a kid at Veisha. Apparently drank too much of LAKE LAVERNE and it grew on me.. Both spouse and I graduated from ISU..........Always knew the popular Hawk saying of " If you ain't a Hawk, you ain't ****" is an excercise in in hawkeye gooberisms, meaning if you are a hawkeye, you are ****. I learned English the ISU way.

Born in Louisiana, grew up there and Houston. Later grew up more in Iowa.
I probably wasn't an official fan till the first day of band camp.

My ENTIRE family is Hawk fans, like hardcore, hate ISU, Hawk fans. Family holidays are always, "Yeah, well we won the football game this year!" I was an Iowa fan until I came to ISU. I grew up going to Hawkeye football and basketball games. Long story on how I ended up going to college at ISU, but I'm here. I love life as a Cyclone and I will never go back.  | | | |

Born and raised a Gopher fan in Minnesota. Cultivated a healthy hatred of anything related to the colors black/gold, and anything hawk through that. I wanted to go to a big school with Division 1 athletics, but didn't like the downtown U of Minnesota campus. Next closest was ISU, and ended up being the best decision I ever made.

Growing up, I was a KC Chiefs fan who really never cared about college football. I would cheer for Iowa, Iowa State, and whoever was playing Nebraska when I did pay attention to it. When it came to college basketball, I cheered for Crieghton. But, Coach Mac and the Seneca years made me fall in love with the 'Clones. I still cheer for the Chiefs and the Jays, but the Cyclones are(obviously)my favorite team these days.
