This site stood up for Steve Prohm up until the point he went 0-19 in Big 12 play. I'm shocked the greatest quarterback in Iowa State history can't even get a tenth of the backing. So ready for Brock to shut you losers up.

Somebody get this guy a snickers
I have one tomorrow too and its infuriating. Wedding is at 4:30, going to find a place after the ceremony to watch then show up to the reception afterwards. Haven't missed a game since 2008 and I'm not about to let some wedding change that
"But it was the only date the caterer had open!"
Yeah, there was a reason for that, you dope!

I feel sorry for people that had all their wedding plans turned upside down.
I understand it being annoying but if it’s the Kansas game, just watch it later.

Everyone always complains about the weddings on fall Saturdays but if you have kids of school age, the odds of getting through a season without missing a game due to some kind of activity are close to zero.
In the grand scheme of thing, it's really not that big of deal, but in the psychology of things, it's trading one of your favorite moments of the year for your least favorite moments. Just a hard switch to flip.
I don't think watching the wedding later is the same as being there.
Exactly, just tell him that you'll go to his next one.
I told my wife we weren't getting married in the Fall, so we did it in the Summer instead. She still gives me ****, but deep down she knew I was in the right.
My family has sort of scheduled funerals around athletic events.
True, a lot better. Not sure if I dislike all the photo taking or the lame dances more, but it is a better time to reconnect with relatives than a funeral.
I'm convinced people here would miss the birth of their own child if it occurred on a Saturday in the fall.
Went to a wedding in 2018 at the end of September when the Brewers were 1 game behind the Cubs for first place with 2 games left. Most of us were in the bar watching the game, instead of the reception hall, even the bride and groom popped in every so often.
My opinion, whether or not you're a sports fan, I think you have to take into account the sports atmosphere where you live/where your guests are from. I don't mind missing a game in the middle of the season, but I think if you're going to schedule something during an opener or potential postseason/playoffs of a sport, try to have it where there's a TV.
Can't imagine there's too many weddings around Ames/Iowa City opening weekend for football.

We’ve actually told family that we’ve invested $$ through season tickets and Cyclone Club. The schedule is out many months in advance and, if they decide to schedule an event during football season and want us there - check the schedule. If it’s a wedding, they still get a gift.
