New Johnny’s starting next year.
- Thread starter ISUalways
- Start date
Boo hoo hoo. Cry me a river, we are so oppressed!
Have u been in there? It’s like a night club with a 45 minute line to get a bite to eat. It’s not a good spot. If it was a lot bigger with more food stations it would be great
And that's why it's being moved to Scheman....
Yea, sound like a temporary covering will. Be put in place then a permanent one with the construction of the new hotel attached to schemen
When you enjoy the new space in Scheman, please keep in mind that the decision to eliminate Benton auditorium in Scheman had a very negative impact on many extension meetings on this campus. I am referring to meetings involving 300 to 500 attendees and involving 3 or more breakout concurrent sessions. Scheman, including Benton, was perfect for such meetings. It seems that in making that decision, some folks forgot that extension is a very important part of ISUs role across Iowa - and beyond. And there is nothing to backfill this facility in Ames, certainly not Gateway, Stephens is way too big. I love Cyclone athletics and I'm a big fan of what has accomplished with Cyclone athletics over the past decade or two, but count me as disappointed with this decision. But then, I guess you can't make everyone happy.

Do people use Johnnys throughout the game? Won't it be kinda dead during the game? I could see being in Johnnys during a game when it's in Hilton where you can feel the crowd and energy but having it in another building?
I'm gonna need some renderings of this and the hotel and everything. Pollard's been pretty quiet lately hopefully that means something is coming soon.

Was there during the Baylor game. Crazy packed. Crazy lines for everything. Was a bummer.
The new Johnny's won't be open during the game. It will be open for two hours pregame and one hour post game. So, yes, the new Johnny's will be very dead during games
I didn't even eat at the Kansas State game. I showed up an hour before the game started and the line was so long I just walked over to a concession stand and got a hot dog and soda. It's funny seeing a bunch of people, most presume to have some sort of money to afford tickets to Johnnys, standing in a 45 minute line to get food. I was over it. I did try and go back at halftime and they got rid of the good food and put some power donut holes out. So I had a few of those.
I'd guess at least half the people in there aren't Director level or are adult kids of Director level donors. 1 example, I have a buddy in his early 30's who has 4 tickets in his dads name. He goes to every game and almost always has 2 of the other 3 available for friends. I've taken several of the Johnny's passes and am only Cardinal.
