Iowa Wave

[Major Tom]

Know what that is? No, it's not the 'one finger wave' given to Biden when ever he shows his drooling face! It is a Iowa Hawkeye football tradition when they play a home game in Iowa City. Iowa City has a huge medical hospital right next to Kinnick Stadium where the Hawkeyes play. Right next to Kinick is the childrens hospital. It is tradition that ALL the fans in Kninnick Stadium stand and wave to the children at the hospital! The children wave back too! Togor often chides me as an Iowan hick, but us Iowans have common sense and moral values! Unlike certain deplorables here!

So a couple of comments:

To the extent that Cheeseheads, Gophers and Hawkeyes rib each other, it's in a friendly regional way as opposed to the look-down-on-the-fatheads-in-flyover-country way that other parts of the country do.

If you're writing a post about how classy Iowans are, I suggest you don't start it by bragging about how they flip off the President of the United States.

Because I can tell you for a stone cold fact that I know plenty of Iowans who would think that flipping off the POTUS of either party is classless behavior. They were raised better and would want to know what the hell is going on in your part of Iowa that this passes for normal behavior.

Iowans are accutely (sp) aware of what drooling Joe has done and is doing to destroy America! Only a 'bonehead' can't see it! Not only is this happening in Iowa but all over the country!
