Next time, though, I think I\u2019m going to make it my goal to get even closer to the field. The whole student section is first-come-first-served so why not be as close as possible!?

And since you can\u2019t bring in your own water bottles, I make sure to have enough money for that when I go because its always important to stay hydrated.<\/p>\n

This Saturday, I had the most fun at a football game I think I have ever had in my life. Growing up in a family of Iowa Hawkeye fans, going to games at Kinnick Stadium was a pretty special, and often a rare occurrence.
