The Toay Story

To go along with the football theme......

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a huge Iowa Hawkeye fan. It's my alma mater and I spent 4 crazy, fun, and oh so memorable years there. Iowa City is a great college town with so much to offer. My husband went to Iowa State University, however no one would ever accuse him of being a superfan. While he cheers them on, his heart is definitely with the University of Wisconsin. He grew up not far from Madison and grew up a huge fan and his love for the team has probably grown exponentially through the years. I still haven't convinced him to go to a Hawkeye game with me, but somehow he has convinced me twice to go watch Wisconsin play. The first time was at the Rose Bowl 2 years ago and then again last year for their season opener in Madison.

I am not going to lie, Wisconsin fans know how to party. They live it up and while you will never convince me that Iowa City tailgating isn't the best, I will say that Wisconsin comes in at a close second. Here are some photos of the Labor Day game last year against UNLV. It was hotter than hot and it was a blow out, but it was fun to see the stadium and get to participate in the infamous "Jump Around".

Maybe one of these days I can convince my husband (an admitted Hawkeye hater) to come watch my team play. It might be the next time they play Wisconsin, but mark my words, it will happen.
