go to Applebee's in Ames any Monday night for about 9 months of the year and you get all the tailgate stop you need. The rest of the state needs these tours.

I've been enjoying the game shows they are posting from the bus. Man, you can tell Fred is competitive...even in pictionary! :)

On the cyclones.com website with the other game show video from yesterday the bus stopped at a nursing home and visited Shirley Steele. Is she of any importance to the university? Sorry if I'm missing the boat on this one she does not ring a bell at all for me.

I almost lost it when Fred told John to worry about himself. Haha

Me too....a couple times "do you job and I'll do mine" and he also gave props to the soccer coach over the other guy who was on the team before.

I am very tempted to skip out of work for a few hours tomorrow to head over to Newton. Anyone know roughly how long a Mid-Day stop will go?

They're usually there a pretty good amount of time. Granted, the midday stops are a bit shorter, as they have to make it to their evening destination. Maybe 2-3 hours?

Also, I'm extremely excited for this in Dubuque today! It's not often that we get much Cyclone coverage in this part of the state!

What is with Hoiberg's shirts? He wore salmon the first day and black yesterday. Is he showing NBA teams how good he looks in their colors? Seriously, somebody needs to give him some cardinal and gold to wear.

I was st the one in Paton. We arrived at 11:30 and were on the road heading back to work at 1:15.

BIG crowd in Bettendorf tonight. 20 minute wait for photos with Fred. CPR attracted a crowd, too. John Walters does a great job emceeing. Local Cyclone HOFamer Jayme Olson was in attendance. A great time was had by all, except my 2-1/2 year old granddaughter who was scared to death of Cy. I tried to convince her it wasn't Herky, but she wasn't buying it.
