If you are staying in or around Des Moines. Sky Zone in Grimes is a great time for the kids.
We have a couple of Mcdonalds in town. They are pretty great if you have never been to one.

Definitely go here. May you and Snyder step in ******* on your way into the stadium.
That said - MAD props to what that old coot has done consistently for far too many years! That's a program we'd like to emulate in lots of ways.
Have fun and enjoy the Ames hospitality!
Saturday is the best day since they rinse out the ball pits Friday nights. Usually.
Stop by the Memorial Union (they have a parking garage and it doesn't cost much) on Lincoln way to check out the ISU Bookstore. then make your way out for a quick walk around central campus and Lake LaVerne... if you're not sure where to go just ask anyone around you to point you in the direction of the Campanile as well as the Zodiac. Some of the most iconic images of ISU are in that area. From there you can drive to a tailgate (parking is typically $20 cash), I echo the S16th St/VetMed parking options.
In-game: With the kidos, time your concession trips wisely, ISU has terribly run concessions and if you go at half you will not make it back to your seat until 5 min into the third. ISU also has a clear bag policy but if you do not have one they do have lines to check bags but they may take longer to get through. You can also bring an unopened or empty water bottle into the stadium and they have water refill stations which can save some coin!
If you really want to be a local, see how many Busch Lights you can sneak by security in your winter coat. Hopefully we avoid rain Saturday and enjoy your time in Ames... but not too much. I hope its the last game of the year for your Wildcats.
LOL. Yep. And the refs.
Instead of EMAW, my suggestion for purple kansas is EABOD.

-Lots of built up anger from our fan base.....i just saw the redshirt seniors have lost four straight by a total of 13 pts total.....and last year was a true tipping point of anger given the ending (our last trip to Manhattan was our "blessing in disguise" Coach Rhoads ending
-Enjoy Ames....watch for deer on the ride home through Iowa and Missouri if you drive at night
-Our hope is one day it'll be Matt Campbell Family Field at Jack Trice Stadium, lol

Some good advice. Although I think the water fountains had been drained already before the Baylor game to keep the pipes from freezing. Could still fill up water at the bathroom sinks if you were ok with that. If there is some other water refill station that hasn't had the pipes drained, someone can correct me.
