I tried the 'peer pressure' thing...it failed. Can't even beat out opening day of pheasant hunting....bumbed. Oh well, the rest of us need to be twice as loud. Lets GOOOOO!!!
Hopefully all of those that said we would never have a problem fillings up the remodeled stadium once we started winning show up this time
Sure it will, people love thinking they are getting a discount or a good deal. All comes down to some advertising.

Be curious to hear more excuses...our fans are overrated, how many actual people did we have at the Texas game 35?
Pet peeve-calling others lame because they have different priorities than you that don't fulfill your priorities.
Lame person? No. Great hunter, for sure. Lame fans, absolutely. Fair-weather fans in every sense.
A pet peeve of mine is your lackluster comprehension.

Biggest question. Will the SEZ'ers come outside and cheer?
I don't think anyone is personally calling you lame if your life doesn't allow you to go to the game. If they are, that is not right. But I will be the first one to call our fan base lame if we cannot get 60,000 at this game when we sold out UNI and Iowa.
I would hope that we expanded our stadium to fill up huge Big 12 conference games like this one. And not non-conference games to an FBS and in-state rival. I hope the fan base proves me right this weekend.
It just bugs me when people say others are bad fans for not going or wanting to go. I know ISU fans that are vocal that have not been to any game in years if ever. Doesn't make them bad IMO they just have other things they would rather do with their time/money.
For the record my wife and I will be there with our 2.5 year old and one month old.
45* at 2:30pm...how is this even a question of going to the game or not? I'd give my left nut to be there.
Lol, I hate it when the end zone looks empty because people are inside. But to be fair, the SEZ ticket holders are comprised of a lot of older people that have donated a ton of money to the AD for many many years. It is the retirement home of the stadium. If I was over 80 years old and could sit inside during freezing temps...I probably would too. I know my grandpa sits outside for the first half of every cold game in the SEZ then takes breaks inside during the second half. He is 85 though.
If you don't want to drive overnight and can find a ride to ames, the Amtrak leaves Denver at 7PM at night and gets into Osceola at 7AM. I much preferred taking the train home when I was in school vs driving. The train's comfortable enough to sleep in and I'd grab some whiskey from the bar cart and chill in the lounge for the first few hours.
