You sir have obviously never met an OU fan. And to be clear I mean a fan, not an alum.Norman is one of two Big 12 towns I’ve yet to attend a football game. But I sat next to a bunch of OU fans when we beat them in the 2015 Big 12 b-ball tournament and they were pretty gracious

Just met an Iowa State grad at the bar I'm at. He was wearing his Letterman ring - said he played football there (he was a gray hair - probably the 50s or 60s would be when he played).
One of the biggest loud-mouth douchebags I've ever met in my life.
Just kidding. He was utterly pleasant. Sent a daughter to UT and has hopped on the bandwagon now I think. Told him there are a lot of assholes in the big 12 but I'd never met an ISU fan I didnt like.
His response was "well, you know, it's the midwest".
Cyclone on my friends.
That’s awesome! In my experience, the only Big 12 fans I’ve found douchey in real life are Baylor and KU basketball fans.

Just adding to this thread.....
This has flown under the radar, but Matt Campbell happy to get this former Asst Coach back at Iowa State from Indianapolis Colts....
I’m pretty thrilled with it. Manning was a very solid OC and a better OL coach. Our offensive line is the difference between 6 wins and 9.

After trying our damndest to fuck everything up, if we win tomorrow it’s us and K State in the lead.
Granted, we aren’t going to win tomorrow, but it’s still fun to think of

Unsurprisingly nobody’s talking about OSU at ISU. With 8 scholarship players now I’m surprised ESPN doesn’t sue us for being so pathetic.
I was too busy yelling into my sleeve.
We are the basketball version of what Texas was in football this year.

I’m not laughing at KU. They’re going to be livid on Monday

We got 10" of snow. Winter is definitely here.

I make a point of not drinking 3-4 nights a week. When it's planting or harvest seasons (about 3.5 months total) I don't really drink at all.
Non-harvest, I'll drink on Thursday night through Sunday if it's compatible with what I have going on. I couldn't tell you the exact #, but most of the time I back off when I hit that solid buzz in order to be "present".
For big ISU games, or bachelor parties I cut really loose.

I’ve passed through on the interstate. I didn’t dare exit.

And Sioux City is better than Waterloo. I may have been raped at a gas station there in 1993.
Waterloo at least has Cedar Falls attached.

We’ve officially got a pile of snow and I’m riding my fat tire bike around town with a backpack full of beer.
Its a good night

You must be east of Spirit Lake. That’s a good ways from Sioux City. I was gonna to offer to buy you a beer at The Diving Elk next time I’m in Sioux City to see the never-ending I-29 reconstruction project.
I live northwest of you, and that cold snap mentioned in your link was the only time I recall it being below -20 in almost 20 years since I moved back. Most years we have a handful of days that are barely sub-zero. However, I did survive a legit 120 F in the mid-2000s.
I’m only an hour west of Wisconsin, on the same highway that runs through Spirit Lake

Damn, my son and DIL live in North Sioux City and he says it may have broken the -10 threshold a couple of times last winter. They are buying a house in Sioux City right now, so I’ll have to warn him that it gets colder a few miles over the state line.
This was according to the internet. Jan 2nd. I live 3-4 hours east and north. We were close to that temp.

I grab Lonestar when in Texas. I don't mind it at all. Our version of that is Grain Belt. You can never go wrong with a 6er of Big Friendlies.

The thought of Parish is making my mouth water. We crushed a bunch of Envie at a crawfish boil at the Avenue Pub in New Orleans the last time I visited. That was a good day.
And a triple digit bar tab.

Anybody else find that after your endeavors into craft beer, especially with regard to the extremes in Stouts or hoppy pinecone shit; that the day to day American lager just doesn't make a shit to you?
IDGAF if it's Miller High Life or Natty Light. It doesn't make a huge move on the needle with regard to my enjoyment of said libation whether it is Bud, Miller, or Keystone.
I've actually started drinking the lower end American lagers for this exact reason.
There are definitely times when I just don't feel like craft beer. If we're going kayaking, or tailgating, or golfing, or some kind of activity where I'll be drinking throughout the day and don't want to spend a ton of money/get stinking drunk, I just go with regular beer. There is so little difference between the "high end" American lagers (Bud/Bud Light, Coors/Coors Light, Miller, Mich Golden) and the cheap stuff (Natty, High Life, Busch Light) that I go for the cheap stuff.
The only exception is the super cheap beers made in Minnesota and Wisconsin. There are a couple of breweries in Wisconsin, and one in Minnesota that specialize in making the cheapest possible beer on the market. There are about 5-6 different brands, and it is absolute piss water. It tastes like grape jelly and metal shavings. Stuff like Kul (with an umlaut), Boxer, Mountain Creek, and Gluek. That shit should never be drank by anyone ever. Just fucking trash.

You know, there was a time in my life I’d agree with you. But I actually prefer to get up early on the weekends now. I have time to get shit done and still play golf, go fishing, or do stuff with the kids.
I can't sleep past 7AM. Even in the rare instance where I'm out until 2AM.

Ugh that sucks because it demonstrates a pretty severe lack of judgment.
One reason MJ was considered a gateway drug is that one has to enter drug dealer culture to obtain it. I understand that today and for some years now, most MJ dealers are strictly ganj. Back in my day, drug dealers were a one-stop shop and had a tendency to upsell. And once you are making those transactions, not much to stop you from trying something a little stronger.
I despised dealer culture, and that was one of the biggest reasons I turned off weed in college. If I had to go spend time with people I didn't like to get something, it wasn't worth getting.
But I think one of the benefits of legalization is that this particular negative aspect of weed use is going away.

Where the hell did it get to -30 in Iowa in 2018?
I guess it was only -28. Sioux City.

I’ve been to a lot of OU/ISU games at Trice and never had an issue.
I realize it’s a 100% different dynamic than with OSU or UT fans. We’ve never been any kind of threat to OU. Just 85 years of guaranteed wins. They’re proportionally benevolent to us.
Im sure there are a bunch of obnoxious OU fans, I’ve just been lucky enough to avoid them.
