My first experience at a game like this

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Obviously we've never been to the conference title game, but I have never been to a bowl game either. This was by far the most intense, tense atmosphere I've been in. The atmosphere is absolutely addictive and I will definitely return to Indy when Iowa returns there. I wish I could make a Rose Bowl trip work, but it's not in the cards for me with work and money.

Glad you had a good time! I did not make it over to Indy but kicking myself a bit that I didn't make the trek over. I won't be taking in the Rose ... As much as I want to, the prices are just much more than I thought they would be ... It's been a fun ride and from what I understand, Hawk fans took over downtown Indy ...

Also passing on the Rose, but did make it to Indy and despite the outcome it was a BLAST. Was so cool to see black and gold dominating the stadium. I can only imagine how the lid would have almost come off of Lucas Oil if we'd pulled off the goal line stand at the end. . . and how Indy might have come crumbling down if victorious Hawk fans had been turned loose on that town after a dramatic win! Well, next time. . . .

Please make sure in the days leading up to the Rose Bowl that you start a random thread that you are worried about the game or that Stanford had a great week of practice. The CCG was the first time in recent history that I do not recall you starting such a thread. Thus, I place the loss 100% on your shoulders. I'll be stalking this board from Pasadena for you pessimistic outlook.

Hak fans did overtake Indy. The Tilted Kilt Friday night was 95% Iowa fans and was packed. We got there at 830/and waited till 10 for a table. Everywhere there was hawk fans. The game was more hawk fans as well. Easily the best game I have seen, despite the ending. Let's make it an annual trip!

Iowa was 12-0 in a national quarterfinal game. The Rose Bowl, while cool, will pale in comparison to the intensity at Lucas Oil Saturday night.

I hope to prove you wrong, like Connor Cook, I piss intensity.

If you don't think there will be a fever pitch in Pasadena for Iowa to win its first Rose Bowl championship since 1959, then you don't know Iowa.

All Tilted Kilt food sucks, everywhere. You go for the boobs, not the eats. And the boobs usually aren’t that great either. Of all the Breastaurants, they are the worst.

Are you kidding? The Rose Bowl is 50 thousand times better than freakin Indianapolis, Indiana.

 

[Herkmeister]

Our fans were impressive. We had a great time. I'm very glad I went and I would compliment the City of Indianapolis and the staff of Lucas Oil Stadium.

Disagree. They're both great venues. I loved going to the Rose Bowl in 2013. Hawk fans should have a great time in Passdena.
