I hope those in authority take note of this or folks like @brentblum or @ChrisMWilliams can shed some light.

I reached out to Aer Lingus to ask when game-only tickets will be available, and their response was:

"A very limited number of tickets will be allocated to Iowa State, and more details will be shared in February."

Very limited.

It's clear that many Cyclone fans are eager to attend the game. However, for families like mine, the $4,000+ per person travel packages (plus airfare) are out of reach. A trip of this scale requires substantial financial commitment and advance planning, yet being told to wait four months for ticket information leaves many of us in a difficult position. You'd think people know right now if they are going or not, so letting families start making their travel plans with assurances they can have a ticket seems like a no-brainer.

If the intention is to reserve most of the "very limited" tickets for high-level donors, this delay creates significant unease among countless fans who want to be part of this event but are unsure how to move forward with their plans.

How can regular season tickets holders ensure we can get tickets without saying "buy the official travel package."

Not to be too cynical, but having a die-hard cyclone family buy airline tickets (rarely refundable) and plan a trip only to be told the school allotment is 1,300 tickets will really sour things.

Season kicks off tonight so figured time to start up this thread.

Some news for tonight's game:

Feel like 2025 has the potential to be an all timer. Lewis in red will be the hardest to get used to. But you also have a new teammate for Max, and 5 rookies overall.

She is messed in the head but lawwwwdy.....

Half the playoff field would automatically be SEC/Big10

I suppose it is time to get 2025 going...

Anyone else getting a lot of popups on this site?

I've had the last one in the fridge for a few months and forgot how much I liked it.

Blakkr Imperial Black Ale in a can. A collaboration between Surly and 3floyds. Double black IPA.

What at are you drinking?

I live in Urbandale and my yard backs up to a green space/wooded area near 80-35. There have been coyotes reported in the area, but they haven't been much of an issue.

Recently, I've spotted a few crossing my yard during the daytime, which is a bit unusual. In the past, I would only see them early in the morning. Should that be a cause for concern? I don't have pets, but I do have young children who play in the back yard.

If any of you aren’t in the Wide Right Natty Light Discord, you’re seriously missing out.


It’s unfiltered chaos in the best way .

I’ve been coaching for 16 years (high school cross country) and I absolutely love the practice of coaching. I love watching the kids improve and gain confidence and pass along what they learn to the younger kids.

I also really appreciate the coaches that we currently have at ISU, we’re lucky to have these people. I’ve been so impressed with their demeanors and passion and perspective.

I’m wondering if any of you coach (your sport and level) and what you like/don’t like about it.

Daughter going to be at Iowa State this year and we are coming for ISU-Iowa weekend. Bought tix, but need reliable, close, fun place to tailgate that I can purchase. StubHub didn’t have much, not specific spots. It was kind of confusing. Any ideas? I’m glad to pay good money and go reasonably early. Just want a guaranteed spot fairly close, ideally with access to portapotties.

Anyone using the upside app or something similar to get some money back on your purchases? I hear the ads but haven't put it on the phone yet. TIA.

I feel like there are quite a few music aficionados on CF and I have even discovered new bands on here. I wanted to start a thread where we could share what we are currently listening to and just talk music.

I couldn't find another thread like this but admittedly I haven't used the search function a whole lot.

I will start. Currently listening through City and Colour's If I Should Go Before You album and am really enjoying it!
