Jack Trice is a garbage stadium

Agreed on the old Cyclone Stadium. Looking back to my time there (83-87), it was a dump. Jack Trice is 1000x better than to what it was back then.

I liked it back in those days. They let kids play on the Astro turf field after games (maybe they didn’t actually allow it, but stadium workers just didn’t give a shit). Either way it was fun
 
This is the Jack Trice Stadium press box.

I find it interesting that Hawk fans will take any opportunity to rip on Iowa State. Now Jack Trice Stadium sucks because....

I've been to several college stadiums and there seems to be a theme. It takes forever to get anything from concessions. It takes forever to use the bathroom. The concourse are too crowded. Parking sucks It takes forever to get in and out

Here is my list and had the same problem at every Stadium.

1) Jack Trice
2) Kinnick
3) Nebraska
4) Tennessee
5) Michigan
6) Notre Dame
7) Texas A&M

There were two others that weren't bad (Arkansas + old Baylor stadium), but that was because the crowds was smaller.

You get that many people into a condensed area, and it's a logistical nightmare.

I've been to Kinnick enough tines to honestly say it's never been a great experience for a lot of reasons OP criticized Jack Trice Stadium for. You just know going in things will take a lot longer, and deal with it.
It’s quite simple really, Iowa state is the worst and their fans are backwoods ret#rds. Also, they should burn in hell.

Calling ISU fans "the worst" is fine. Whatever. It's a rivalry.

"Backwoods retards" and "burn in hell" seems a little over the line

It's comments like that which make entire fan bases look bad. You can't denigrate an entire fan base for the sophmoric + ludicrious comment of one individual, but that was a pretty stupid thing to say.

I have said this before and will say it again. I have never had a Hawk fan cross the line with me in person. Good natured ribbing? Yes, and that is fine. It's only on anonymous message boards do people resort to such comments. I don't understand. Internet tough guy syndrome I guess .

Kudos for commitment.
My most attended concert has been maybe (?) six times with Kebmo. His ass rocks the place.
If he rolls thru the region again, I will be there. Little Feat and Randall Bramblett are tied for second at at four and I would make it five given the chance.
Little Feat - or what remains of them - is playing at the Rhythm City Casino here in Davenport later this year. May have to check it out. Definitely a Top 5 all-time band IMO.
