This really ticks me off. I am a lifelong Hawkeye fan and alum. My kids all cheered for the Hawks while growing up. But, I have a daughter who wanted the best Athletic Training degree - and that was at Iowa State. She is currently the graduate student trainer for the ISU wrestling team, and is in Tulsa. She was really looking forward to this experience. She just texted me this afternoon to tell me this:
"Hawkeye fans are in [the hotel she is at] and a grown man just looked at me and saw my ISU stuff (you know, the stuff she is wearing because she is a member of the staff).....and says "You better watch where you are going on this floor or us Hawkeye fans are going to kick the shit out of you."
My daughter said this person looked to be around 50 years old. This piece of crap just told a lone, 105 pound, 22 year old female this -- just because she was wearing ISU gear. She was also spit on at the Iowa - Iowa State dual this year. Annnd, when she was doing her rotation with football last year, the same things happened at the Iowa-Iowa State game.
Now I know this is not the norm for Iowa fans. Especially for wrestling fans. But not only is this a bad look, but its criminal. Hopefully, the POS that did this is a member of of HR or at least checks the forums once and a while. Hopefully he reads this. Hopefully some people that know him read this. If this is you - you are NOT a Hawkeye. Your are NOT a true wrestling fan. And you are definitlely NOT a man by any definition that matters. Hopefully the two of us never meet, because I would really hate to spend jail time because of a lowlife such as yourself.
