Is this real life?
Not sure. I have a hard time believing ISU would be interested in Iowa WR castoffs. TEs maybe. But not WRs.

Bostick is such an unknown and has potential. Every time it seemed he was going to get a shot, he would get injured.Not sure. I have a hard time believing ISU would be interested in Iowa WR castoffs. TEs maybe. But not WRs.
You misheard. He said Clinic. Named after the place where mom got the shots to clear up the HWKSTD.Jerriann was asking some kids theirs name on the news at noon on WHO as she was at the Science Center and one said "Kinnick". WTF??? Wonder if his dad is "Hawkeyes on my Belly". I can see your pets but your kid?
Antonio Brown is that you?Clark looks like a prepubescent boy. Test her too.
This isn't all that dissimilar from our daughter's graduation from ISU last year, except our ceremony was at 7pm. Hilton was a sauna. Some weird speeches. Parking was chaos. And at the end was a hard sales job from the alumni/advancement guy asking the grads to start giving.I posted some of this on the random fire thread already, but Iowa can kiss my a$$!
Son’s graduation with around 1,100 graduates at the 1:00 ceremony. No pomp & circumstance, no marching in down the steps, CHA was (and will always be a toilet) hot inside, trying to park was a disaster. We ended up parking just west of Kinnick. The walk between the indoor track facility and the baseball field did smell like an actual sewer. They wouldn’t allow purses, so I ended up taking three back to our car. Struck up a couple conversations with some folks and warned a couple gals about the no purse policy on my walks. They caught back up to me and thanked me for the forewarning.
The presenter made a couple jokes about Ames/ISU. Showed a video with Queen CC and Iowa Football. . Some professor read from 4 pieces of paper he had in front of him. Really a head scratcher on what he was try to get across. The program did not have any of the graduates names on it. Grads just walked across the stage and shooks hands with some dignitary and sat back down.
After about 45 minutes or so the presenter said I want to leave you with two words…( I wanted to yell SUCK IT), but she said, “Go Hawks!” No, “I present to you the class of 2024!”, no, playing of the Iowa Fight Song. The whole ceremony just left a lot to be desired. I normally wear ISU apparel whenever I go to IC, but refrained as it was our son’s day.
I’ve got one more trip there and that is to help move him back home, after that I have no desire to ever go back, maybe except to go to Big Grove, of which they were out of their Double BlackBerry. They did give college grads an “Eddy Pack”, which was pretty cool of them to do.

Weird. My graduation at ISU was over ten years ago, but I'm fairly certain there were no references to the university of Iowa or Iowa City. Honestly it would be embarrassing had there been.I posted some of this on the random fire thread already, but Iowa can kiss my a$$!

He wanted to experience life outside of Ames. Plus three of his friends from high school wanted him to go. This was after playing football at a juco for two years.Why the **** did you let your kid go to Iowa?
Because college destination shouldn't be the parents' choice.Why the **** did you let your kid go to Iowa?
That is bad. ISUs have always been first rate and solid. Been to one at UNI and it was similar to ISU.I posted some of this on the random fire thread already, but Iowa can kiss my a$$!

I'll bet that family was wearing tigerhawk shirts...I do wish they'd banish those f*cking obnoxious noisemaker/horns that idiot families bring, and arrest anyone who sneaks them in. We were sitting not far from a family that used them and were loud as h*ll when their grad's name was announced, which meant that if your kid was the next one announced you had no chance of hearing their name called. Trash people.
I've not been to one. Not even my own.Our Cyclone graduations were all fine.
Have been through many of them.
One son was at JTS. Cyclone Warning and everything. He got an MBA as well and that was in Hilton. Simon Estes sang at JTS.
Between all my siblings, kids, in-laws, nieces and nephews, probably been to 30 commencements at ISU.
Favorite commencement speaker was Clayton Anderson.
Also enjoyed the awards at various engineering departments for my boys.
I can still see the joy and relief on my parents faces when they came to mine, youngest I'of six. A happy memory of my mom today.
They are a relief and a joy. I even got to meet Naz one graduation weekend at WAS.
After all the money and effort, sorry you had a bad experience.
I know a gal with both a Kinnick and a Kayden (Hayden with a "K").Jerriann was asking some kids theirs name on the news at noon on WHO as she was at the Science Center and one said "Kinnick". WTF??? Wonder if his dad is "Hawkeyes on my Belly". I can see your pets but your kid?
