Kinnick sells out. Wack Trice doesn’t.
Wouldn’t just letting somebody walk by quickly be more conducive to the game watching experience than getting your ass kicked and subsequently kicked out of the game?

Something I've really noticed this year: we have aisle seats and so expect to be up and down a fair amount, letting people in and out but I swear this year we're blocked off from half the game with a constant stream of folks shuffling in front of us, going down to the food stands and coming back with armloads of food, or going to the bathroom, or god knows where. I think our rowmates average at least half a dozen trips apiece during the game. Add in folks taking selfies, yakking on the phone, then having their friends show up in the aisle, so they all shuffle out there to take more selfies and talk about where they are going after the game (which for them means in the middle of the fourth quarter when we're driving the ball down the field for the deciding score), and you start thinking your living room with your wide screen plasma t.v. is the place to be. I go home hoping somebody cuts across my lawn so I can kick them out.
Yes of course, probably should of said I would feel like putting a foot up your ass.. as I would never actually do that but my god is it annoying.
I live in Houston. Showing up late for sports events has always been the case here. I went to the first game of the Houston/Boston game at MM last week here. At first pitch it was 2/3 full. And tickets were a lot more expensive than Iowa games. Its irritating to no end.
OP has a point. And for those that disagree, I guess people are not allowed to post a message or opinion that you disagree with?
Seriously? When did we get our own statecollegeman? Fvck.
Mr. Tough guy huh. I got some bad news for you, your Antifa brethren are not hanging out at Kinnick Stadium.
Oh man you're such a bad ass. If my son has to use the bathroom and you try to stop us by "putting your foot up my ass" you better be ready to get your teeth put down your throat.
I’m a former Hawkeye letterman and college coach. What do I prefer? When I was on the field playing or sideline coaching the last thing on my mind was if the fans were getting to their seats early. YOU sound like the one that “must not have played sports. lol”
; wow I didn't realize Iowa people were so hostile everybody's entitled to their opinion everybody needs to chill out and eat a marijuana brownie or something
How long before you start yelling at people to sit down because you can’t see? Honestly, you should look into suite seats so you aren’t bothered by fans that don’t live up to your expectations.
I tell my kids all the time not to sweat the small stuff and don’t let things you can’t control bother you. No sense ruining your mood or day by people that are inconsiderate because you aren’t going to change them and no sense wasting your time on them.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion agreed . but its rude and not an entitlement to ruin someone else's game day experience by being lazy or stupid ...
Would you walk in late to a theatre performance ?
Would you walk in late to a movie?
Would you walk in front of parents watching a game?
It's just common courtesy

A funny thing happened Saturday. We are always there for Back in Black but something happened this time and time got away from us. We had to stop half way up for the National Anthem. Don’t know what happened but I sure am glad I didn’t cross paths with you buddy.
Get over it. People are up and down the entire freakin game. Just stand up and you can see. Or are uou too freakin old?
If fans are reacting to a great play or if the band is playing the fight song, basically if they are supporting their team I have no problem.. I'm probably standing up as well.. but if they are just standing up for no reason or standing up excessively than yeah they should be cognizant of people behind them.
By the way I was sitting in suite seats ... and it's the same problem there as in the bleachers.
It's not ruining my entire day.. but it is annoying .
Just stand up???so I can compound the problem and block the view from someone behind me..no just sit your ass down until the commercial break or halftime and be respectful
Based on the title of your thread, I was actually expecting to read about a drunks falling/stumbling into you while you were in your seat... or drunks that piss themselves while sitting next to you, or that barfed in the stands, or fans throwing batteries at opposing players,
fans picking fights in the stands with the visiting team's fans... all of which happens at other sporting events and at other football games.
No, you are irritated and annoyed because people are "rude" if they don't get to their seats by kickoff and exit prior to the game ending. You joined this message board a week ago. Is this really how you want to start things off with a complaint such as this?

Yeah. Stand up. I have to do it all the time. I figure if I want to see the game its what I have to do now and then. I guess the people behind me have to also. I suggest you say something next time to everyone that passes by you so you can give em your MMA skills.
I swear 99% of his posts start off with “ya”. He’s an idiot who doesn’t know the difference between yeah and ya.
I think I may be on to something. I think the screen names and the content they posted are too similar to be a coincidence.
“Go ahead and cross in front of me and try to find your seats 10 minutes after the game starts and I guarantee you you will not be getting by me anytime fast... and while your at it, try to cross in front of me during the live action or during a play and you might find a foot up your ass.”
“I seem to be getting a few negative reactions from people on this post..I will make a guess these are the same people who come in late and bail out early.. Do all of us a favor and stay home.”
The new guy, Fieldhouseman, is actually Statecollgeman with a new handle.
(The_joker13 actually beat meet it regarding on posting regarding the similarities between the two posters in question).

Lots of rules here, let me make sure I have them all.
1. Get there early.
2. Don’t walk by you during play or foot in butt.
3. Stand but not too much - will check with you on more specifics here so as to not result in foot in butt.
4. Some excuses ok, but not everyone gets to use them or will result in rule 2 or 3 punishment.
If you don’t follow all these rules you are rude.
Perhaps here are a few more to add to your Rule Book of Etiquette and Fun for 70,000+.
1. You can clap and cheer, but not above 60 decibels. Might hurt some ears.
2. If you are over 6’2”, back row for you. Can’t affect sight lines.
3. No talking during game. Distracting. Auto-buttfoot.
4. Nobody with jobs who may get contacted via phone during games. You’re on call? Sorry, back to Melrose with you.
5. Don’t even think of taking part in the wave. Think of all of the people without hands - totally rubbing it in their faces.
6. In fact, time to replace all fans with robots. No seat back controversy that way.
Perhaps the barkolounger and big screen are for you if you can’t have 70k + follow marching orders. Should people be nice and respectful? Yup. Should you lose sleep over it if they don’t? Nope.

OP is the reason I prefer to just stay home now. I was at the Maryland game... got there early too... but left in the mid 4th qtr....
Sorry Bitch.
Sorry Bitch.
Funny stuff. Made me laugh. Did you ever see the movie Hancock? If you don't move, his head is going up your ass. You fellas sure you want ride this train?
Maybe you should t
Wrong... not even sure who this Statecollgeman is ... maybe you can enlighten me
Just get there early, be considerate of other fans , keep your phones in your pocket and don't leave early. Otherwise just stay home so others can enjoy the experience .
I've been on and off this board since it's inception ... just because someone has a new or different handle means nothing
My point is that you’re bitching about things not being found in Kinnick that for the most part aren’t found anywhere under last Saturday’s game conditions. Instead of crying about “some Iowa fans” being annoying, you should be crying about 11:00 start times. Or games against non-rivals. Or bad weather. Or the price of butter. Whatever. Stay the hell home.
