So is it a gold out or stripe game?

Shit, I just bought a gold sweatshirt for $50 because I heard it was going to be a Black and Gold game, and supposedly we are in a Gold section.
 
It’s a horrible tragedy that happened in Ames yesterday. Isu is going to honor Celia by wearing yellow. That’s great! That’s Iowa State’s way to pay tribute to her.
I think Iowa needs to find another way to pay tribute. A simple moment of silence with a nice picture of her on the Jumbotron would suffice.
For HH to jump on this along with other fans saying wear yellow is way over the top. We can show respect in other ways. Sometimes less is more.

Agreed. All of the content on Hawkeye Heaven is ripped off from the real journalists who cover the Hawkeyes. It’s no surprise he’s trying to rip off the tribute Iowa State is planning.

And yes people, I know about the wave, but he didn’t come up with that idea either. I’m all about having a moment of silence for Celia, but we better include Mollie in that too.

Have some respect for humanity. Good grief, what if one of those 2 were your sister or daughter. Pathetic behavior.

It's gold if you are in the gold section, black if you are in the black section. My lord Hawkeye Heaven is annoying.

This is going to F the color scheme up, guaranteed.

What’s pathetic about what I said? It’s 100 percent true. I’m all for paying tribute to Celia, but why imitate exactly what ISU is doing? Especially when Levi is in no way shape or form affiliated with the university and sadly, many of his followers don’t know that.

I thought the university should’ve done a moment of silence for Mollie at the first game since she went to school at Iowa and was a current student. I stand by what I originally said; if the university (not Levi) wants to pay tribute to Celia Im absolutely for it, but they need to include something for Mollie, too.

And for the record, I have lost a child. My son lost his 6 year battle with muscular dystrophy and passed away at the U of I children’s hospital. Sadly, Ive watched a game from the top floor. I have plenty of respect for humanity and hold numerous fundraisers each year to raise money for the MDA. But I don’t believe Levi should pretend he’s part of the university and post messages like that. Not his call to make.

So sorry for your loss, Friend. I'm a member of your sad club too.
 
Judging by how many comments on HH's post are positive about "his" idea. I fully expect the the crowd to be speckled black and gold with a faint appearance of stripes

Guaranteed it's going to look speckled and barely stripped now. Hope that page gets shut down.

I've never heard of a university honoring the death of a student from a different university.

Don't recall ISU or tOSU joining in our tribute after Sash's death or the tragedy that occurred at the hands of Gang Lu. Not sure why there is an expectation for Iowa to do something. Seems like an odd thing for some to get offended by our lack of participation. But it's 2018 and people look for a reason to get their undies in a bunch.

The only difference is Hawkeye Heaven on Facebook. That's it. If that page didn't exist with all of his plagiarism, we wouldn't be talking about this.

The most disappointing part is all of the fans fighting in the comment section with feigned moral outrage. Social media sucks sometimes.
 
I am surprised that Iowa hasn't started to take action against someone using 'Hawkeye' if they aren't following the company line. They are not the easiest of people to get things done through.
 
HH’s post was shared some 10k times and assuming each of those got shared a few more times by people’s friends, I think it’s a safe bet the stripe thing is going to look off this weekend.

Yep, I just checked my Facebook and at least 5 of my friends have re-shared this. The Stripe Out is not going work this Saturday.

I'm sure I'm going to take a lot of heat for this, but why the heck does everyone feel the need to do something symbolic about this. Yes it was a terrible thing that happened, but does the family really need a bunch of people who they don't know putting on a little show that really does nothing more than make themselves feel better. Show Respect? How about leaving the family to grieve ... If you didn't know her, you can feel bad but why try to insert yourself into the situation?
 
If I remember correctly, he also created a post on his page to stripe the Rose Bowl and it looked terrible. That guy is a d bag.
