I feel like many have. The one that really got to me the most was 2015 ISU after Sash and Marble died.
As an Iowa Fan, have you ever teared up?

After Iowa beat Penn St the week KF’s dad passed away. The interview after the game got me choked up
KF tearing at talking about the wave and his family killed me dead.
When Brett Greenwood walked out.
Damn, that one was powerful. Pretty amazing character around this program.
When Lois got kicked out of the metrodome. I really wanted to hear her finish.
Chris Street dying got me and still does. I remember how sad my dad was as well. Honestly, senior day at football games has always made me very emotional. I feel like it’s dumb because I don’t know any of these kids, but we live and die with them every week and I always hate to see them leave.
The 2002 NW game where the Oline came off the field together holding hands was quite a moment.
Winning the 2015 game at Nebraska was also emotional.
I would also say I cried as a kid when we lost to UNLV in basketball to go to the final four. It was dumb, but I remember sobbing after that game.

I remember 2015 Nebby really well. We were at Disney and watching at the ESPN bar and when Canzeri broke his 2nd long run, that place went nuts. There were a ton of Hawkeye fans there because the basketball team was also getting ready to go in just a few minutes since they were in the tournament down there.
Some of the military heroes. Some of them men and women went through the wringer.
I got a little misty watching the documentary with Marinelli
Mods, please delete his and Millahs posts in this thread.
Holy sheet, yes! If you ever hear slow piano music and see Tom Ranaldi, run—don’t walk—the other goddamned way!!!
Lol I was at a friend's house with a bunch of people over for the game and I remember some guys falling to the ground crying with joy after that play.
To be honest sitting by my oldest grandchild when she was 5 in kinnick stadium for her first time as the Hawks walked out of the tunnel to back in black made me tear up.
I didn't cry, but that definitely left me jaded for, oh, say 30+ odd years
The first game my sisters and I attended after my father passed away. 58 year season ticket holder. Our section is like family.
The first time I was the top fundraiser for LFA and I won sideline passes. When I could see KF and the captains leading the swarm, I started choking up. By the time they ran into the field, I was bawling.
The first wave I bawled.
When Greenwood led the team in the field, more tears.
The game where I went to get a hotdog and they ran out two people ahead of me. I thought I'd go finish of the Bailey's we brought ink the game but my birches finished it off while I was waiting on line. That was a sad, sad day.

When I heard the news that Hayden had passed. We wouldn't be where we are now without him
Just keeping it about football...
1. My last home game at Kinnick as a senior (wiscy 04)
2. Greenwood entrance (Pitt 15)
3. Doing the wave at my sons first game (OSU 17)

When they interviewed Mike Klinkenberg the game after his dad passed away.
That game i cried 2 times Greenwood and Marshall Koehn's 57 yrd field goal to win game against Pitt
Jess settles 3rd senior day..
1970 basketball NCAA last second loss to Jacksonville made me cry. I was 8 years old.
Looking back, glad I cried, since that was the best Iowa basketball team I ever saw.

1. Iowa defeats Michigan State to go the Rose Bowl after 20 years of futility. Grown men with tears streaming down their face in Kinnick.
2. Iowa beats Penn St 6-4 after KFz's Dad passes. The scene on the side lines as KFz grabs his sons...wow
3. Brett Greenwood leads the team out (this could easily be #1)
4. The night Chris Street died. Most of us were alone, but I remember it well
5. The first wave
All that said...every opening day, when I walk out of the tunnel and see the green grass, black and gold, and the aura of Kinnick...I get choked up.
