We just got home from FanFest. We thought it was a wonderful experience. Got there about noon so, when the doors opened at 1pm, we were about 4th or 5th in line. Everyone from the athletes to the staff was enagaging and seemed to be enjoying themselves. My stepson particularly liked Cy, the Football obstacle course and the cheerleaders! 
My year old daughter liked Cy the best (of course!) ISU does a first-rate job with FanFest.
We also purchased tickets for the ISU/NDSU game and got section 8, 3rd row! We didn't expect to get seats quite that good so we are extremely pumped.

Definitely a classy event. It did worry me how Rhoads was telling everyone that we have a long way to go and that we definitely need the luck. But I guess I would rather have him be straight then blow smoke. And yes I will echo that it was seniors only because I asked a couple players how Austin got out of it and they replied that only seniors were in attendance
Ok, my bad. I took it to mean he was with the seniors and that didn't make any sense.

Not what I wanted to hear.
That's kinda scary. Between CPR's and Wally's statements my hope for a .500 season and low end bowl game just diminished greatly. With our 2010 schedule changes, it's going to be a long haul.
They definitely are not trying to build up expectations. Both are defensive guys who probably believe that defense is the key to winning football games. Obviously the defense is nowhere near where they think it should be, so they are probably nervous.
It was fun. It is getting very crowded though. I've been the last three years and each year more people seem to show up.
I'm not sure how much longer they can keep it up if attendance keeps growing.
I think it is great to expose fans to some of the other programs that don't get as much attention. I know my 4 year old loved playing tennis and volleyball.

Is it something that should eventually be moved outdoors? like into JTS or on Central Campus or something like that?
Not sure. They had many of the doors open however. It either got warmer than they thought or didn't think it was worth it with some doors open.
There were just too many people in there. Of course, all my 2 year old wanted to do was run around with his free little football, so I got really sweaty cahsing him. He was so excited to see Cy and we talked to L.A. Pomlee and Vanderbeeken. My son was shocked too see guys that tall. He was also impressed by the Volleyball players that were taller than Daddy as well.
Fan fest has been pretty fun the last few years. It will be even better when my oldest can do more of the activites. I think the activities are geared more towards school aged kids. Now we mostly just get freebies, walk around, and check things out. I think it is a great event though. Get kids excited about ISU sports! Hook 'em young! We will be taking our boys (and any future kids) to this event as long as they have it and the kids will go with us. We got tickets in section 19 as well. The guy in front of me got tickets in the upper deck, but closer to the 50. I got the better deal. HA!
Bear in mind that our 4-7 record in 1999 included shoulda/coulda-won games against K-State, Texas, Colorado, and Kansas, and did include a road win over Missouri that snapped our 12 decade-long (approximately) losing streak on the road.
