Iowans will come down to Orlando with one pair of overalls and a $20 bill tucked in the bib pocket and neither one will be changed the whole time. :lol:
i'm sorry, but i don't slurp gumbo. but i might try now. :wink: i hope the people from .... looking for clever locale jab, but even Nebraska got one better than you guys.... like the florida winter. The expected dress is what we in the South like to call "shorts and t-shirts"- but i guess you would refer them as "really, short jeans and a thin coat, eh?" no matter what, just bring all the corn and cheese you can, and we'll toss a bottle of Tabasco in your 'pickups' when you cross the Mason/Dixon. :grin: MPF
Since Iowa is the subject, I have some questions: 1. what is the capitol of Iowa ... without looking at a map. 2. where is Iowa ... without looking at a map. 3. Isn't the Hawkeye wrestling team bigger than the football team ? lol 4. Should I bid on the Iowa scoredboard on Ebay ? 5. With what accent to Iowans speak ie Wisconsisn or Minnesota or Wyoming ? Just wanted to clear up some questions before the bantering begins.
I hope you guys get the treat of seeing some Hawk fans in black and gold striped bib overalls. They were big in the 80's are now making a comeback. I don't have the cajones to wear them, but it shows that we can we have fun with our image. And you can keep your hotsauce. You have already infected our pure Northern heritage by making sure there are 30 different types of hotsauce (including 'Louisiana' brand) available in our stores (I love it on chicken). Ten years ago it was just Tabasco brand. You'll be kissin' our butts if we bring our steaks and pork loins down with us. I'll be willing to trade for some quality seafood. Here's another tidbit for you. Every county in Iowa elects a "Pork Queen" at the county fair to send to the State Fair to try and become the state "Pork Queen". Don't think we didn't have some fun with that in highschool.
1. Des Moines 2. East of Omaha 3. No, but I wouldn't f*** with em 4. If you want Iowa's scoreboard 5. Watch Fargo. They all sound like that. "How are ya?" I've been to Iowa a few times. Stick with Suzi because those Iowa women all look like Russian farm girls. :wink:
Why are they selling it, I wouldn't think you could have worn it out that fast scoring 6 pts. a game.
1. what is the capitol of Iowa ... without looking at a map. A: Burlington was the territorial capitol, followed by Iowa City (the Old Capitol building is the centerpiece of our campus), and Des Moines for the past 110? years 2. where is Iowa ... without looking at a map. A: Too close to Missouri. 3. Isn't the Hawkeye wrestling team bigger than the football team ? lol A:It's odd to say, but we've gone 3 years without a national championship so Hawk fans want the coaches head. There will never be another Dan Gable and we Hawks have to come to terms with that fact. 4. Should I bid on the Iowa scoredboard on Ebay ? A:Too late. Someone bid at the last second for the asking price of 10 grand. Part of the stipulation was that the winning bidder had to have their own crane ready Sunday morning to dismantle it and take it home. 5. With what accent to Iowans speak ie Wisconsisn or Minnesota or Wyoming ? A: I gotta give ya' props on the Wyoming jab. When I was in school (the first time) in the late 80's, you could but shirts that said "University of Iowa, Idaho City, Ohio" The top two-thirds of Iowa speak fluent Midwestern (aka "the King's English") while the bottom third (from which I hail) speak likes an intelligent Missourian (sounds contradictory, doesn't it?). The old joke is that if Iowa would cede the bottom third of the state to Missouri, both state's IQ's would go up. While we are talking about Missouri, please take note that their cowardluy AD at the request of that coward Pinkle, dumped Iowa from the schedule in 2005,2006 and replaced us with Arkansas STATE. We had to pick up D-1AA Northen Iowa because noone else was available. Now, we are going to take heat next year for a weak non-conference schedule and there is nothing we can do about it. Sorry to be hogging your board with non-LSU stuff, but I'm feeling yappy.
Welcome to our board, tinkerbell! Hmmm... Iowa... Iowa Hawkeyes you say? Y'all play football, do ya? Iowa Hawks... Oh yeah! Your program was started by a fellow name Hayden Frye, weren't it?! :geaux:
