That's Why We Drink It Here
An Iowa autumn would not be complete without a University of Iowa tailgate. Just set those alarms early and pour yourself a drink.
Things always get a little crazy in Iowa City on football Saturday. The streets are flooded with black and gold brethren, obscenities are never too far away, and at some point you will walk out of a darkened bar only to realize that it is 2:00 P.M.
The Hawkeyes didn't come out with the W this time around but as anyone can tell you, Saturday mornings on Melrose are about a lot more than the game. Their is something to be said about organized sporting events and the way they can bring so many happy campers together all cheering for one common interest. And putting beside the touchdowns and fumble recoveries, on such a nice autumn morning surrounded by so many beautiful Hawkeye fans, I had all the reasons to cheer loudly.
