I_WA (They lost the 0)

Missing football flag has UI asking: How do you spell I-O-W-A without \"O\"? | DesMoinesRegister.com | The Des Moines Register

This is just a funny story...

When the Hawkeye cheer squad enters the field at the start of a football game, they carry four large flags that spell out "Iowa."

Haddy told sports reporters gathered for coach Kirk Ferentz's weekly press conference today that the "o-flag" is either missing or was stolen.

MODS: Change thread title to "they lost the 0" please... thanks.

A few years ago the isu trombone section tried to 'commandeer' one of the braces that they used to let the goalposts down in Kinnick after the game. The attempt was unforunately thwarted, however :-/

Check the "ghost room" or maybe it was in there and someone threw it out.

Whoever stole the flag should have taken the "A" instead. At least the then the cheer leaders could spell something the iowa players and fans would be able to recognize with their limited education.


O-W-I.

At the Baylor game this year, the flag carriers misspelled "Baylor Line" as "Baylor Ilne." Plus the guy at the end carrying the "BU" logo flag was rather portly and much shorter than the people ahead of him, so he was waddling a good thirty yards behind them.

This reminds me of the time that the guy carrying the "L" tripped and fell while running across the end zone after a touchdown so the flags read "CYCONES" as the cheerleaders ran across the field.

Was this "The Story of O"? :wink:
