The Seven Types of Iowa Football Fans You’ll Meet on Gameday

So you’re coming to Iowa City for a football game. Welcome! Enjoy your stay. Would you care for a beverage?

Great, now that you’re comfortable, let’s have a talk about what, or rather who, to expect as you make your way from wherever you’re staying to the college football Mecca known as Kinnick Stadium.

Though it holds under 70,000 fans now, the cities of Iowa City, University Heights, Coralville, etc. take on well over 100,000 visitors on gameday weekends. With that many people, you see Hawkeye fans of all shapes, sizes and types. I mean ALL.

But it’s Friday afternoon and you don’t have all weekend for me to run through them.
