Where can I get one of those?
No more of that talk or I'll put the fucking leeches on you, understand? Raoul Duke
I want one ASAP.

This is great!
Anyone where one would buy a print?

Is this real or the work of a BHGP photoshopper?
"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
It's legit
It was tweeted by the Hawkeye Football official account.

Stunning
At once a stirring pic of the seniors, a wonderful reference to the Americanzi, AND a shot at Little Brother who still chafes against that whole detestable “Hawkeye State” nickname for the state of Iowa.
Well played.
I actually think it's ugly...
but I love the Stanzi patriotic theme.

It looks like a movie poster
So I suppose it’s a taste thing. As in, DO YOU HATE ’MURICA??? Commie twit.

I want this
and I’m going to get it framed. Would love to get it signed by the great American Ricky Stanzi.

Have we officially crossed that line...
where the athletic department is now trying to make money off this sentiment? Maybe I shouldn’t complain, but…

I may be mistaken but I don't think the athletic department sells the team posters.
If memory serve they are available at various campus locations, but not sold.
Hawkeye fan, born and bred. And when I die, a Hawkeye dead.
I planned to hit Carver Arena and grab them all up.
They will be for sale later this week. Just go to Craigslist – Iowa City and look for my escort Hawkeye memorabilia section
"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
the grandious nature of the image leads me to believe that...
they’re picking up on the tongue-in-cheek aspect of Ricky’s speech. Buy the ticket, take the ride…
But our trip was different. It was to be a classic affirmation of everything right and true in the national character. A gross physical salute to the fantastic possibilities of life in this country. But only for those with true grit.

Wow
I want one, is there any way for someone outside of Iowa to get one of these?
Why is Paki front and center while Stanzi is buried in the upper left corner?

Apologies, the interblog doesn't do sarcasm well.
I was thinking of the team posing for the pic and Fred just shows up:
“Hey fellas, what’s up?” ~ “Not much. Just taking the senior team picture.” ~ “Cool! Can I be in it?” ~ “But you’re not on the team. In fact, you’re not even big enough to be a water boy.” ~ “Awwww, jeez, fellas. Can’t I be in it?” ~ “Fine. Whatever. Just stay away from Stanzi.” ~ “Yay!”

You ever see Jim Gaffigan and Conan do their Pale Force cartoon?
As I read that dialogue in my head Fred Durst’s voice was that of Gaffigan voicing Conan. And it was good.

No. Just... no.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Even the big version is too small to see the print (each player's name is next to them in the pic)...
…but I’m hoping it’s the Irish Carbomb. I believe this would have been his senior season, and I know he stayed with the team even though he had to hang up the cleats.
by Eyeheartfreedumb on Sep 16, 2010 11:37 AM CDT up reply actions
Went to the online store, couldn't find it.
Where can I get this sucker?
I'M WAY OUT HERE IN L.A.
any help from a BHGPer would be appreciated. Just buy it and hold, we’ll go from there.
Ditto
Also in L.A. I’ll piggyback on Zulu’s shipping costs!

Wow, I want one of those
Somebody who is local needs to find a way to get a bunch of them. I would gladly pay to have it shipped to me.
It never gets to be easy
I don't think they make money
I think this poster is free. I think. You can get them, but I don’t think there are as many as the regular season poster.
Again, I don’t know a lot of details. I rushed this for entertainment purposes.

I don't know for sure...
But for those requesting posters sent to them, it might be worth contacting the Alumni Association and seeing if they can send some to your local I-Club. Last weekend there were pins, pens, pom poms, and other stuff up for grabs at the Portland game watch… and I know when I was living in Phoenix they usually got copies of the posters for us all.

I just talked to the Marketing Dept...
and they said there is not a surplus this year for them to be handed out to the public. They’re just going to be distributed for special requests and such. Sad day.
by LoveItOrLeaveIt on Sep 16, 2010 1:24 PM CDT reply actions
How is this not a special request?
I’ve been called “special” many times.

by KinnickNorthHawk on Sep 16, 2010 1:41 PM CDT up reply actions
I was told they are filling request for the families of the seniors first
was told to check back in a month to see if there are any left. Your best bet for a poster might be to cozy up to Clayborn’s mom.

special request ONLY??
I say we are not taking this BS! We ARE Hawkeye Nation and Americans and we want our poster! Who do we start deluging with emails?
Call them! Maybe if enough people do, then they would get more printed.
I called and talked to the Marketing Dept, and they called over to the football office to check on how to get them. The guy I talked to said they weren’t being distributed to the public, etc.

Key variable:
Parents weekend. I barely escaped with my life after running into Terry Brands in the athletics hallway (again). Sports Marketing sent me over to the HFSCABOD (Hayden Fry Sports Complex Athletic Building Of Doom) and I talked to the receptionist. Apparently the key variable is how many of these suckers get picked up by parents of players on family weekend. The football dept only had one box (!???!?!?!) printed, so leftovers apparently go out to the masses, if any.
is it ethical
to encourage hawk parents to hate america so we stand a chance at gettin one of these…??
by metcalfrhymeswithblodbath on Sep 16, 2010 4:04 PM CDT up reply actions
Any idea how many are in a box?
500? 1,000?
by LoveItOrLeaveIt on Sep 16, 2010 4:20 PM CDT up reply actions
I wonder how hard it would be to copy a copy
So the masses could get their hands on it… or if the AD would release the digital print of the poster so we could print it for ourselves…

That is what the Chineese would do

I really think it would be a great idea
to sell these for $5-$10 and put all the proceeds toward charity like TD4K.
Yes, but second-hand (once the availability is low)
They’ll go for twenty or thirty dollars, even more if they’re signed by one or more starters or prominent second- or third-stringers.
