    Default Iowa Pep Fest

    I havent heard one thing about the pep fest. How was it?

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    Pretty cool. I got to sit by Sean Engel's parents in the front - good people.

    Replay of audio interviews on bison 1660 soundcloud were good. Former bison spoke. Lot of confidence in a win before the game.

    It's getting really old. Same speeches from Larsen and Bresciani. Expensive beer. Didn't even see the band or cheerteam. We left early. Probably won't go again. Baseball caps were ok though. Band was good/ok.

    I thought is was good. Probably best they've done, as far as enough room, enough food and drink, etc...

    Front Fenders were great.

    Bad parts...acoustics were terrible. Band was so loud was hard to visit. All the featured speakers must have been done by 7:00? It seemed 80% of the Bison fans either assumed there wouldn't be room at the pep fest or they wanted to be out on the town.

    Better food than concessions would be cool.

    The Alumni Assoc. staff did an great job.

    I liked it. I always run into old college friends.

    I'm very surprised to admit this, but I thought it was poor. You couldn't hear the former players because the crowd continued to talk… They didn't even stop to listen to Matt Larson. No band, no cheerleaders. We were fortunate to be able to sit at a table, but there were at least 100 people standing, and there would've been room to set up more tables. I talked to fans who said if they have to stand, they were going to leave. The pizza was ok, the chips and nachos were terrible.
    On a sidenote, the band rocked on Saturday!!!
