Tuesday, October 5th, 2021

 This past Satuday I took my cousin David with me to watch Iowa State's dominant victory over the Kansas Jayhawks, 59-7.  I believe that the 59 points scored by Iowa State are the most that I have seen them score in person at a football game.  

Before the game we enjoyed an "Oktoberfest" themed tailgate in the G7 lot.  I brought some bratwurst that I had simmered in Old Milwaukee the night prior.  People also brought homemade pretzles, homemade mustard, and a variety of other German foods.  I also brought some tasty German Oktoberfest beers from Weihenstephaner, Paulaner, and Ayinger.  

The game itself was a complete blowout from the start.  Brock Purdy threw for 4 touchdowns... in the first quarter!  Xavier Hutchinson, Charlie Kolar, Joe Scates, and Jirehl Brock were the recipients of those TD passes.  Anyways, this marked the seventh time that I have watched ISU play (and defeat) Kansas in football.  The previous years were in 2019, 2017, 2015, 2013, 2011, and back in 2002.  

David and I sat way up in Section A for the game.  

I am looking forward to the weekend of October 16th, when I will take Elizabeth and both of the boys down to the game at Kansas State.  Go Cyclones!
