Favorite Part of Gameday at JTS

[CycloneErik]

I enjoy that whole game thing.

The moments right before the team comes out really are exciting with the anticipation.

The part I enjoyed the most was the walk from my house to the tailgating lot knowing there was a day full of drinking and football ahead of me.

I like when the band starts playing the drums and then running onto the field in circles. Especially the first game of the year. So many memories when they start that.

The band running in circles is dumb dumb dumb!!!:no::no::no:

Since Football is just around the corner, what is your favorite thing about gameday at JTS? (besides the actual game, as thats reason we're all there anyway)


I like to get my seats around the time both teams are done warming up and heading back to the locker room. BUT my favorite part are the 5 to 10 minutes after the National Anthem and just before ISU comes on to the field. You really start to feel the anticipation and energy of the game itself; I actually start getting nervous. I don't know what it is; the band, crowd chants, stadium starting to fill up etc, but I've felt that way since I was young. Looking forward to September 2nd.

1. Tailgating- No matter what, the tailgating is always fun. Rain/shine. Win/lose. Hot/cold...no matter what the tailgating is a consistent winner
2. Walking into the stadium- Don't know what it is but I love walking into the stadium. I will always go out of my way to go by the Jack Trice statue. If I have guesst with me I show thme the statue and explain the history.

For me its driving down S 16th towards the stadium seeing the early risers setting up, grill's being lit and ISU flags from one end to the other...

oh Sept 2nd won't get here fast enough...:smile:

College girls who are drunk enough to flirt with me and good enough at it to make me think I might really have a chance.

My favorite part of Game Day -- especially the first Thursday night game -- is the feeling that comes over me prior to kick-off. It's twilight, the sound of the crowd, the picturesque look about Jack Trice Stadium in early September, the feeling in the air, the team running out of the tunnel. It gives me goose bumps every time.

The walk through the lots going from one friends spot to the next making the rounds. Making new friends. Sneaking back into the students section so I don't have to sit around people sitting on their hands.

Sweet Caroline,

Good Times never seemed so GOOD, so GOOD, so GOOD.

Good! I had to take my rowdiness to the regular seating section. :sad: Sitting in the student section was so fun! I guess I could always make my way back there since I'm only 2 years out of college.. :biggrin:

I sat in the student section for at least 5 years after I graduated. Loved the view from Section O. We even had one of my buddy's dads sitting with us most games. Funny thing is, now I'm a donor and because it's now a donor section, I still sit in Section O.

There is a certain rush after handing over the ticket and getting through the gate...I always get it when I'm going up the stairs inside the east entrance. Some sort of combination of adrenaline and alcohol.
