My brother (near TxHawk in FL) and I (Colorado) both signed up this past week. We see this as a part of where college sports is going and love supporting the Hawks, so we share the same motivation as TxHawk mentioned above. I am sharing the news about Iowa Swarm with my fellow Hawk connections. My 30 year old son is joining me in Iowa City this weekend and Jayne (from Iowa Swarm) said he was welcome to join me at the Tailgate. No membership package has arrived yet but she put our names on the list! Looking forward to a warm tailgating spot…
As I side note, I know how to pick the cold games… NE Thanksgiving game in 2012, when it was supposed to be reasonable (20+ degrees below forecast by Halftime), MI 2013 game (coldest game officially, I believe), NW 2019 game (loved the fireplace scene on the scoreboard. My FL brother’s snow boots disintegrated during the game due apparently to a long time without use and transitioning from FL humidity to dry, cold IA).
