Being from the Iowa City area, I had to plan ours around ISU and Iowa. Iowa was off and ISU was in Stillwater for THE night game we all remember I'm sure. This was of course 10/14/2000, we listened to the game in the hot tub on our wedding night. It was the only way I would agree to getting married in the fall as we originally had planned a spring wedding.
I had another friend that had his wedding on Sept. 15th of 2001, and you all know how that went. Since the game was cancelled, I ended up going to his wedding. During the dismissal of the congregation she had the gall to say in that tone, "I wonder why you guys could make it...". My buddy scheduled it on that day because it was the only Saturday he could reserve the church or reception location. Well duh, 'cause nobody wants to go to a wedding on the Iowa vs. ISU day.
One other great night game, ISU v Iowa wedding story was the Comeback, and the first time I missed this game in the last 12 years. At two weddings in KC, one was loaded with Iowa fans and UNI/Iowa fans. When the wedding let out, Iowa was up and by the time the reception started, I was on cloud nine.
So, to stay with the thread and not derail this conversation, KSU game at night in early fall, I love it!!!
