Rushing the field away from home?

This. Don't rush Kinnick, puts us on their level.

Yea, we don't want to ruin their superbowl.

Wouldn't it already be ruined?

Would it be acceptable to rush the field at an away game?

Now a days I would say no - I agree with another poster who said it brings us down to their level.

I have to admit though - I have rushed the field a few times both at Jack Trice and at away games. Two of the more memorable times. #1. In Iowa City after beating the Hawks 10 - 7 in 1980. It was a tough game and after Alex Gifford kicked a field goal to go ahead (I think he had missed 3 previous attempts) the Cyclones held Iowa from scoring on it's final possession and as time expired we rushed the field and tore down the goal posts. They were wood at that time and for a long time I kept a piece of it for a sovenier. :biggrin:

#2. After the first Insight bowl in 2000 I took my wife and two small boys down on the field to celebrate the victory with Coach Mac, the players and many other Iowa State fans. It was a great time. Some of the fans were tearing up pieces of sod for soveniers. I remember seeing an Iowa State fan wearing a large piece of sod on his head walking around the concourse after the game. :biggrin:

I think the Golden Rule kind of applies here. I would be really angry (and probably angry drunk) if they rushed Jack Trice. Therefore, I will not rush the field if we pull the upset this year at Kinnick.

Just Do It. Win or lose. It would be on ESPN.

If we're talking Iowa City or Lincoln (and I know, we won't be back to Lincoln), then I'm fine with it. Have some fun with the game. And tick off some Hawks.

I did not like it when UNI rushed the field at JTS a couple of years ago. That gave me a sick to my stomach feeling.

DON'T DO IT!

 

[isufox]

Guilty.

Guilty as well.

I think it's in very poor taste to rush an opponent's field to tear down their goalposts. That being said, you can't tear Iowa's down anyway - Kinnick has some kind of latch system that allows their stadium crew to collapse their goal posts as soon as the game is over anyway.

Did I just see a stockton and malone post back to back?

 

[isuno1fan]

Do it!

And take pictures!

I remember being on the field in Kinnick in 98, 2000 and 2002.

 

[Clonefan32]

I'm for it. Run down on the field, heckle a few players, see if you get punched in the face... sounds like a positive experience to me.

 

[mkcrawford]

Guilty as well.

I, too, am guilty of said infractions occuring in Iowa City in '98.

But is was damn fun!! :wink:

 

[Wesley]

Rush the goalposts when we score a touchdown. First one since 2006.

 

[jbhtexas]

WWCPRD?

 

[RandomFan]

Iowa tore down the goalposts at Minnesota so I would say their field is fair game.

By that logic their bathrooms would also be fair game...

 

[mksmith2]

By that logic their bathrooms would also be fair game...

And i'm sure that many a State fan will indeed do this to their bathrooms as well.

Interesting first post..
