Somehow...I have not been able to find anyone to go with me to this game! Not even my Dad!!!!!

So, my extra ticket is available! I sit in the north end zone. Section 135, Row 48, Seats 19 & 20 (exactly in the middle of the uprights). They are high up, but everyone that sits up there for the first time are always surprised by how good the seats are. Best kept secret in Kinnick!!

Game is Saturday 9/13
in Iowa City
Kickoff is at 11:03 am.
Blackout Saturday for Hawkeye fans (Wear your black!)

Ticket will go to the first person willing to put up with me going nuts during this game!!
It's gonna be a shootout for sure!!!

Wish I could go. It would be a blast hanging out with you at a game.

Unfortunately, I will be nowhere near IOWA on saturday.

(Too bad work doesn't send me to Rock Island anymore. Back when I first started working, I had to attend quarterly meetings at Rock Island Arsenal.)

I'd love to take you up on it, but Roadie Rob & I are going to be fine tuning our Dells run on Friday, which means I'll be all beat to heck and gone on Saturday. I haven't been to a Hawkeye game in a long, long time.

Have fun! We''ll see you soon in the Dells!!!

Dang Diane...and dang Dave!!!

I've been through a long list of people for this one too!

Worst case, I go...sell the ticket right before the game, make a killing because tickets are going for $75-$100 on ebay, and sit by myself.

Best case, someone uses my ticket!

Hey Dave...

If you do want to go to a game...I may have the Wisconsin-Iowa game available on Oct. 18th. Let me know if you're interested!

Hey, IHawk95, my wife and I sit just opposite you in the south end zone, Section 216. I agree, great seats! You will not have any trouble unloading your extra ticket, but please don't sell it to a Cyclown fan. Do you come to all the games, as we do? We've had season tickets for over thirty years.

I love to cruise over Sat. mornings to IC from Indianola where we live. Saw the first Sol or Sky on the ride last week when we passed a Mysterious just west of IC on I-80.

Let's hope for a big win, GO HAWKS!

Nah! I was just yankin' your chain a bit . . . I hate big crowds, and thus don't go to big sporting events . . .

Thanks for the offer!

Awesome!! Another Hawkeye!!!! Been going to the games for 17 years. I've had season tickets (one way or another) for most of them! I do try to go to all the games, but I'm missing 2 this year. Last week I didn't have anyone to take my 2nd ticket so I let a guy at work have it. He and his wife went and had a blast! He's orginally from Washington, IA and the people that sit to my right are from Washington!

My dad went to Simpson and my best friend from high school lives in Indianola and teaches at Simpson! I think he's the Director of the Academic Resource Center there. Small world!

Keep looking on I-80 for Sols! Seems like I see 1 on I-80 every time I'm in Iowa.

Only way a Clown is getting my ticket is if I feel like rubbing in the return of Hawkeye domination to the state of Iowa! All will be right in Iowa again after we win on Saturday!!!

Where do you park? I'm scouting new parking locations. I like parking off of Madison near the power plant, but the secret is out on that spot.

I'll wave at you from across Kinnick!!! Go Hawks!!!!!!!

Not to worry. If I don't find anyone who wants to go, I'll have no problem selling the ticket on game day. This game is a huge rivalry game and there will be lots of people looking for tickets.

I'd just rather find someone to either meet me there, or go with.

We park at a guy's house on Golfview, just down a block from what used to be the Melrose Market. So we only have to walk a couple of blocks to the stadium. I'm getting too old to go much farther. Remember that this game is Blackout Saturday, so wear your black Hawkeye gear.

The guy I work with parked near there last week. Said he paid $20 to park in a guy's yard. Not bad really.

My only black Iowa T-shirt was washed last week in preparation. My black Iowa sweatshirt is also clean. The only thing I need to check on is my black long sleeved Tigerhawk shirt. I think Saturday is going to be a layering day, so I'll need to be ready!!
