Bet those players wished they were playing on grass
The Athletic Department should have given anyone who stayed even til halftime LIFETIME season tickets at the 50!!!
The fact that the wiki attendance shows 36,256, I think it's safe to say the video above proves that was a lie.
I was on the 50 yard line I might say with 3 others snowmobile suits and all lol.

I was there. I'd be surprised if there were more than three or four thousand people there. They didn't even check tickets at the gate. I spent the entire halftime in the men's room trying to warm up.
Attendance figures have always been listed as tickets sold/distributed. Never turnstile counts.
You are a hero.
Was it likely that the 36,000 was tickets were sold rather than an estimate of attendance? Misleading, for sure, if so.
One of my finest friends graduated from ISU in 1973. I believe he has missed two home football games, one for the birth of his first child, the second this game. He set out from Waterloo but could not see the U.S. highway at all, total whiteout. Damn glad he made it home.
My friend is an ISU warrior; even during the worst years, he refused to not show up for senior day, believing those athletes in the fallow seasons owed homage as much as our athletes did in the good seasons. (Hey, I like that, 'fallow' seasons.)
My friend is a Son, Forever True. But, damn, your family comes first.

Nothing like the men's room in the 90s with the steam rolling off the troughs
I was there with my brother. Spent the entire second half in the north end zone. The wobbly touchdown pass they threw hung in the air so long I wanted to run out and knock it down. Had a blast!
I was there. The whole game. A few of us stayed on campus the weekend before Thanksgiving. I vaguely recall karaoke much later that night.
Was there a similar blizzard game in 1994? I know I was at one around that time, season tickets the year we went winless but its a hazy memory.
