If any of you meet a nice woman from Dubuque decked out in red, please remind her how disappointed her children are in her. Disgusting.

Panther fans easily outnumber badger fans at "the stadium". Even had a visit from the Panther cheerleaders.

Spent 6 hours up on state street last night and have been out and about this morning since 7:00. Havent had an unpleasant thing said to me yet. Even had several badger fans thank us for coming up and buy our drinks.

Re: Countdown to Wisky...Who's in?

Just got back from the store here in Macomb (pulled pork is on the tailgate menu here in the back yard as soon as I get the grill fired up) and I saw a guy all decked out in Badger gear. Didn't get a chance to talk to him though.

Game Day, folks! Panther football is back!

Re: Countdown to Wisky...Who's in?

Flags flying, paint this town purple sign planted in front yard, neighbors on notice that the screaming will not be a crime in progress. Tailgate consists of low maintenance crock pot items, bloody marys and....oh yes beer.

I have coworkers who saw UNI narrowly lose to UI, people know the panthers here. NOW, how about a game of the century, an Appy State over UM type shocker, one that changes the parameters, and tomorrow everyone in the country will know who UNI is!

Sure I'm a homer. But I'd rather be a UNI homer than a hawk wannabe anyday! Panthers, dump a Jayhawk on these Badgers (the only team in America with an identical coach and mascot)

I'm calling UNI 36 Wisky 24 LETS GO PANTHERS!!!!

Re: Countdown to Wisky...Who's in?

Interesting experience in Madison.
- Most left us alone during the tailgate. Granted, we were offering ribs and drinks to keep 'em friendly.
- The walk to the stadium was filled with "**** you... Eat ****." Little did I know that was the student section theme. Stay classy Madison.
- Other than their little cheer, I was pretty impressed with their student section. Had some memories of The Horseshoe as the student got and stayed involved.
- The Jump Around, IMO, is highly over rated.
- It was another one of those walks to the car where no one was happy...

The Stadium is a bar outside of the stadium. And for a good part of the morning there was more purple than red in it. I think a lot of badgers were surprised at just how we represented today (tailgate speaking). I was happily surprised too.

Re: Countdown to Wisky...Who's in?

Just got home from the game. I didn't sit with any other UNI peeps, me and my buddy were the two of 5 total in our section.

Pretty good time overall, killed some time before the game at the Big 10, fun place, lots of people.

The game itself was fun. *sigh*

I was VERY surprised at how it seemed the Wisconsin fans were not into the game at all. Granted it is just "an FCS team" but still. The only time it got loud in the stadium was when the band played (I know the wisky band is a big deal up there) and during UNI's final drive. Camp Randall certainly wasn't the most intimidating place I've ever been.

Great place though, I'd probably go back.
