Absolutely Hilarious!
I saw these guys during the game, they made me shoot beer out of my nose! I just don’t get it… Are they Super-Stupid-Fans?
somebody else said this and I agree
that we should be applauding guys that get behind their team like this. It takes some swagger to dress up like that and enter Kinnick stadium knowing the relentless torment that awaited them win or LOSE. I’m not a Clone fan by any stretch of the imagination but I will take this type fan over the dickhead Iowa fan who sits behind me and bad mouths every play call that does not result in a touchdown or 20 yard sack. The Cyclone Sad fans were a hoot to watch from the opposite side of the stadium as they went from Uber-enthusiastic to Mega-morous in just one half of football.
"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
One half?
I think they were pretty much done after one quarter.
Hell, they might have been getting cold sweats after that awful-looking three-and-out ISU had after Iowa’s unstoppable first drive.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Agree (though I still think they looked like idiots too)...
…and if Iowa had somehow lost, it would have been fun to watch their capes flap in the wind like super-heroes-zeros as they ran down Melrose with at least, what (?), 60,000 Hawks chasing them. If that had been the case, I would have loved to have been sitting in a lawn chair with a bowl of popcorn.

Great to see...
“Sad Fan” back. (And, for the record, if you want to dress up all goofy in support of your team, Okay No Problem. Just don’t do it when your team’s on the road)
If it's ever appropriate . . .
it’s especially appropriate on the road.

agreed
plus, isnt it possible that they are just unaware enough that they thought it was justified (they had a chance)?

They may have thought they had a chance...
Austen Arnaud knew they didn’t, that’s why he didn’t show up.

I must be the only Iowa fan in the world . . .
. . . that thinks these guys represented their fanbase well.
Sure, when I see a Hawk dressed in comparable gear (and there are a few ever week) I roll my eyes. But I smile a bit inside at their passion and follow-through.
Seriously, it’s not easy to be a fan of a team whose success is defined as 6-5. Showing this kind of passion and commitment (even if it is only for the game against Big Brother) is cool. Props to them for going all out on the road against a rival.
Just because there are a lot of Cyclone fans that have anger issues and inferiority complexes, doesn’t mean we have to be dicks to every Cyclone fan. That would make us jerks. Let’s not be jerks.
I think ...
being a dick is the correct call here. Respectfully speaking, of course.
Excuse me for my bellicosity. And spelling. Bellicosity and spelling.

fair enough . . .
as long as it’s premeditated dickishness.

In the multiverse...
they can be dicks, not dicks, both, or neither.

I admire their spunkiness. Its much better than the douches in the giant foam cowboy hats.

Perhaps my best years are gone... but I wouldn't want them back. Not with the fire in me now. No, I wouldn't want them back.

They wanted attention
They are receiving it.

I love it
It’s even better because they knew they were going to lose. They came to rep their school and team, and made a statement.
FG, I should have read this before posting above. I totally agree.
"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
Did anybody else see Sad Fan after this?
Later on, one of these man-boys was shown sitting by himself in the corner texting on his phone. I can only imagine what he was texting…
To: Mother
ISU is getting their butts handed to them! :( Since I’m dressed like an all red fool-wizard, I’m probably going to be the center of ridicule when I leave the stadium and quite possibly have perishable foods and various liquids thrown at me when I leave the stadium. :((((( Could you come pick me up at Kinnick Stadium. I know it’s a long drive from Minneapolis.
That moment was the highlight of the second half for me...
…especially since the announcers commented on the fact that it was “texting time” for the ISU fans.

Wait. I know they’re doing a red-out, but aren’t the Arizona variety of Wildcats blue? Is this from the near future???

If you are wise, you’ll listen to me
Who do you blame when your team really sucks?
happless and lost like a semi-retard
Blaming the kids is just passing the bucks
You know exactly who’s to blame
It’s – Austin Arnaud

I feel the capes do a pretty nifty job of hiding the fact that they stole their spare tires from the ISU O-linemen

Who is the guy all the way over on the right?
Did he forget to dress up? Did he refuse? Is he a random Cyclone fan who just happened to dress like Goof Troop?

He's the back-up.
If one of the others go down do to an injury he’s next man in. It’s a beautiful story. Transfered to ISU from a clown school. (McDonalds university I believe) Just looking for an opportunity to play. Walked on, and fought his way onto the geek squad as a back up. If all goes well he expects to be starting by the time UNI comes to town.

If you were wise, you’d listen to me.
What do you get when you’re a fan of Iowa State?
A lifetime of mocking will be your fate.
You will be a target for all Hawkeye trolls.

These are awesome!

I think Mr. Vint needs to sing this as the opening theme to a podcast.

I think
they were showing these guys after the first quarter itself, already looking glum.
I fell over laughing
When the announcer said that they forgot their sunscreen. Funniest thing I have heard in a week
I have to wonder if these guys
will ever get laid?
"Have you ever had the Hot Pocket Hot Pocket? It’s Hot Pocket inside a Hot Pocket. Tastes just like a Hot Pocket."
'course they will
They have each other. I’m was informed last week by someone in the know that the guy on the left (AKA sad texter) is what is referred to as a " bear."

That's better than my second year in the U of I student section
Some guys were throwing half-full bottles of beer, which is both wrong (because 1, they weren’t empty and 2. they could hurt someone) and ’tarded because our student section is behind OUR PLAYERS. Good job guys. Hit our own players.
It escalated over a number of games, culminating with a pig’s head being tossed out. The athletic department contemplated putting up nets in front of us, then settled on frisking everyone on the way in for bottles and having a dog sniff for any hidden meat. Okay, maybe the meat sniffing didn’t happen, but I did have to hide alcohol on my girlfriend’s body a few times…
