We all have our horror stories of watching the Iowa State / Iowa game with hawk fans.
What's yours this year?

Who is stuck watching the game with Hawk Fans?

We are going to a new environment this year. The Hawk fans we normally watch with were lucky enough to get tickets through work. The wife notified me we are going to a game watch / house warming party to some friends. I just know this is going to be brutal. I am 100% confident my wife and I will be the only Iowa State fans there and even more confident we are the only one that our diplomas will match the shirts we are wearing. It's gonna suck, it's gonna suck bad.
Did your wife not know of your stomach flu that's been coming on over the last few days?
Once I watched some of a game on my phone in the Oskaloosa Wal-Mart.
Never ever watch with Hawk fans. But I also usually end up watching alone after kicking anyone out of the room that have non-game related conversations.
LOCK THE DOOR WHEN YOU GO TO THE BATHROOM! Best advice I can give you. Unless the house if filled with all people from the opposite sex and you are single, then its your call if you want to pick up something that you will have the rest of your life.
One year I did this and vowed never to do it again. It was the Steele Jantz year. A good friend of mine that is a Hawk fan had a little party that turned into a much bigger party. I was the only Iowa State fan there. Made enough of an ass out of myself there are still people I can't quite look in the eye to this day.
I don't associate with Hawks so don't have to worry about this problem.
Was that a humble brag about not eating fast food?
Oddly enough I don't have any horror stories. I take care not to watch the CyHawk with 'roaches. But just by delightful coincidence I did watch the '05 & '12 games with some UI fans.
I suppose the closest thing was going to an ISU/KU gamewatch at a bar in the Siouxer which a bunch of local hawk gutter trash couldn't keep themselves away from. F*cking gross.
If I'm not attending my preference is to watch it alone. That way I can yell , scream , cuss, and gloat with impunity.
I would fake illness or even inflict self harm, before watching it with an Iowa fan in the room.

I eat fast food all the time, I'm just not going to watch sports with the workers lol
If my wife made me watch with a bunch of hawks, there would be payback happening later.
We were invited to two watch parties. One with friends that are hawk fans and even but clowns in the in the invite email and another one with acquaintances that are big ISU fans. Even as an introvert that was an easy decision.
Yeah I tend to watch just with my wife and kids unless at the game. Definitely don't go around my family during the game being I grew up in a Hawk house, even though I will say my parents have toned it down quite a bit since I was at ISU.
My wife and I are going to an Alumni Association game watch in Omaha. She cheers for "all Iowa teams" but was raised in a diehard hawkeye house. Hopefully there will be no cheers for anything hawk-related. She particularly loves this game because she, and I quote, "can not lose."
Going to the game at Kinnick, so there may be a few Hawk fans there.
This will only be the 3rd CYHawk game that I haven't attended dating back to 1999. Fortunately this year we are watching the game with friends and we are all Cyclone fans and that is by no means depressing.
