Iowa State football fans are incredibly passionate. The Cyclone faithful is exactly that.
The fanbase travels by the busload to every away game and sells out every game in Ames. And wherever they go, a trail of empty Busch Lights follow, so
They are awesome people and they care deeply about their team. Even if that means that they get a little bit too excited about something that couldn’t really matter less to people outside of their circles. It’s not a bad thing by any means— dedication and devotion to a program is what makes college sports, particularly football, great.
However, it doesn’t mean that it isn’t funny when they get a little bit too worked up.
Earlier this month, the official Iowa State Athletics Twitter account posted photos of a new bridge that is going in next to the stadium. It is set to run over University Boulevard to the right of Jack Trice Stadium and allows easier access to the game from the RV lot.

It looks like a great bridge. It really does.

The project is expected to be ready for use by September 3rd, the first home football game of the season. pic.twitter.com/zgjeXyTdsw

With that being said, a bridge is simply not a recruiting tool. Especially one that doesn’t really lead to anywhere for any particular reason related to the players or the game.
That didn’t stop one Cyclone fan from trying to convince recruits to play for Iowa State because of the bridge.

Bridges connecting directly into the football stadium:
Iowa State: 1
Iowa: 0I think the choice is clear

Lol. Getting jacked for a ped bridge to make the RV lot easier to get to JTS. I’m sure athletes care about that. Better hope everyone using that has a cyclone degree right? https://t.co/gh0irgmc6q

Lol. Football players love nothing more than walking across a pedestrian bridge from an RV lot. I love that this is a real account. https://t.co/X628vcO7qe

Can not call it that, Ohio State trademarked the work the “The”. They will allow you to us “A” if that helps
