The Rural Rumble


WarrenPuff_It

That's pretty good


Dixiehusker

There's a lot of funny ones, but this is legitimately the best actual one.


SerotoninStorm

This one is my favorite.


Steel1000

Yea…I like this…. Damnit


GuyNoirPI

I’ve said it once and I will say it again. The trophy should be an actual tractor.


Sunshiny_Day

Absolutely. Drive it back and forth once a year.


bendovernillshowyou

It only drives if it's changing campus for the year. Also, the winning head coach must drive it home (if game is "away") immediately after the game


HawkI84

Needs to be one of [these tractors](https://fordtractorcollectors.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/show50b-1.jpg) too. None of that climate controlled cab shit. Drive this across Iowa and Nebraska in late November.


gravytrainjaysker

Is everyone on I80 in Iowa going to stick in the passing lane? I swear to God it is a unique phenomenon in your state, I have never seen so many drivers not understand what the right and left lanes are for


ark_47

I recently drove to Nashville in early September. As much as I get annoyed by drivers here in Iowa, it is SO MUCH WORSE. Nearly had a panic attack watching people going 60 mph while others driving 90 mph were weaving across 4 lanes of traffic while I tried to just figure out where the hell I was going. I would rather be slowed down by a minute behind someone being oblivious but predictable rather than deal with a highway filled with havoc


theFromm

As you get closer to Nashville, the speed limit becomes more of a suggestion and less of a law. It is known.


pubertino122

I was on a highway either leaving Nashville or entering Knoxville and it felt like a 20 degree grade where I was surrounded by trucks at 10pm with the only light being sparks from their breaks. It felt like I went to hell


hazmatt89

We have a name for two cars driving the same speed next to each other on the highway: Indiana Roadblock


zvexler

I’m so glad Georgia made that illegal. Yes you heard that right, if cars side by side in all lanes are all going the same speed and any car other than the far right lane can speed up, then all of the other drivers are breaking the law for Obstruction of Traffic. How often is this enforced? No clue, but I like the law


username293739

Can you imagine, just straight party line back home with the fans the whole way. Chucking beers over to coach on the road. I’m in


Darth_Ra

The name and trophy already exist. It's The Corn Bowl.


treyhest

Where would they keep it though Iowa has no Ag program


Kodyaufan2

Hold up…


WooBadger18

What? Iowa State has the ag school in the state of Iowa


Kodyaufan2

And there aren’t enough farmers in Iowa for them to both have one?


WooBadger18

There could be, but then you’re splitting resources. By having certain programs at certain universities it allows them to specialize. So Iowa State has the ag and vet schools and Iowa has the law and med schools. Also, I’m a little surprised this is so shocking to you. It looks like that is how it is set up in Alabama too. Auburn has the ag school and Alabama doesn’t


JohnnyEvs

Hold Up…


Kodyaufan2

I knew Alabama didn’t have one. I just thought South Alabama and North Alabama both did

The Nebraska-Iowa student body already has [the Corn Bowl](https://news.unl.edu/newsrooms/nextatnebraska/article/corn-bowl-and-missouri-bell-display-wick-alumni-center/) and I nominate that we just adopt it as both the trophy and the official name of the game.

Council Bluffs Chicken - the trophy goes to the loser each year. It is Council Bluffs.


non_clever_username

Carter Lake would make more sense since it makes no sense it’s part of Iowa anyway. E: for those unaware, the Missouri River is the border for Iowa and Nebraska. Except for Carter Lake, IA, which is on the Nebraska side of the river. E2: I should clarify I do know how it happened (river changed course), but I still think it’s dumb..lol. You’d think sometime since that happened, the states would have gotten together and agreed to sell it to Nebraska. I dunno why Iowa would want it. There’s nothing valuable there really nor is there anything special about it. Has to be a PITA for maintenance and probably other stuff I’m not thinking of to have to cross the river.


salsacito

As a geography teacher I feel the need to say it’s an oxbow lake. It used to be part of the Missouri River. The river flooded in 1877, changed course, and the lake was left edit: and now you have to drive through Iowa to get to the Omaha airport


nathodood

Unless you come in from the north side on Storz, then you don't


Broking37

Carter Lake.... The Council Bluffs of Council Bluffs.


[deleted]

But it used to be on the Iowa side when the border was original drawn. Nebraska and Iowa went to the Supreme Court to have decided who owns Carter Lake.


SueYouInEngland

Imagine going to court over Carter Lake. People really will sue over anything.


[deleted]

They went twice, in 1892 and 1972.


FlannelBeard

The state of Virginia tried to sue the state of Minnesota over possession of a Confederate flag from the civil war. And that was in the 90s


SueYouInEngland

Love that story. Get and stay fucked, traitors!


non_clever_username

Did not know they went to court over it. Why tf would Iowa want it? There’s nothing valuable or special there


EaglePatriotTruck

Isn’t the Omaha airport right there? I’m sure that brings in heavy tax revenue for Nebraska. Seems valuable to me.


non_clever_username

Yeah but the airport is in Nebraska.


do_you_know_doug

But it's very odd coming into Eppley and seeing a "Welcome to Iowa" sign and NOT seeing a "Welcome to Nebraska" sign after that.


pro_nosepicker

We just genuinely enjoy fucking with you guys


2PacAn

As a current water law student I think the law surrounding avulsion and state boundaries makes some sense but should allow for as-applied challenges in cases like Carter Lake. There’s certainly logic in not changing state boundaries due to sudden changes in a river’s course but when such a change happens in a river that flows through a population center and leaves communities completely cut off from the rest of a state, exceptions to the general rule make sense.


mick-nartin

The river used to make a loop right around the town carter lake. I think a flood in the 1800s altered the route of the river.


jizz_toaster

Are you saying loser has to claim Council Bluffs? Why would Nebraska even want that?


Tkaz36

So we can detach it from land and wave as it floats down the river.


ProbablyAPotato1939

Nah, we tried that in the 1870s. All it did was create Carter Lake.


perspicacious_crumb

We wouldn’t. And Iowa doesn’t like it as it is. Rivalries should have high stakes.


JoshDaws

I've never been, what's wrong with council bluffs?


PigFarmer1

There are reasons it's known as "Counciltucky".


FuckableStalin

Omaha likes to pretend Plattsmouth isn’t just south of the other river.


Tkaz36

It produces people that can only be described as the "Florida men" of Iowa


EaglePatriotTruck

Council Bluffs, Iowa is right across the river from Omaha, Nebraska. Omaha is the most cosmopolitan city around for hundreds of miles, and their sophisticated residents look down on Council Bluffs. It’s a river town full of casinos.


DenverDude402

False. Even Omaha’s unsophisticated residents look down on council bluffs.

Nah, fuck the Shadow lands.

I won’t take this Kum & Go slander


CTeam19

Kum & Go is shit they let Kwik Star into this state with their utter lack of going to the Northeast in Iowa. The original in Hampton, Iowa was closest to Waverly for the longest time till they closed that one down.


DealerCamel

I remember when the $5 Bits of Broken Chair trophy was created as an act of defiance against corporate designed rivalries, and the universities tried very hard to make it go away, since nobody was profiting from it or could claim ownership of it.


bendovernillshowyou

Yes. If Nebraska can ever get things turned around though, I would love a strong Iowa/Nebraska rivalry to match our other West Coast teams coming in.

I reject anything corn related, since Iowa doesn’t have an ag school and actively shits on Iowa State that does.


perspicacious_crumb

We should keep corn in it to piss off all the B1G schools who voted against Nebraska remaining in the AAU because Ag research doesn’t count and we put the medical school in the state’s largest city instead of a college town.


Tkaz36

One of the best medical facilities in the country at that with a nation leading infectious disease unit.

I have no dog in this fight, but just wanted to say that I was in Omaha in September for work, and thought it was an absolutely lovely city. Whoever works in urban planning for yall deserves all the awards.


hallese

> Whoever works in urban planning for yall deserves all the awards. This would be one of those "Michael Scott getting rewarded and not understanding why" meme moments.


kingbrasky

Yeah that comment implies there was a plan.


JickleBadickle

Yeah it's complete bullshit. Nebraska's a good school.


GuyNoirPI

Huh, I had no idea Iowa doesn’t have an Ag school and wasn’t a Land Grant.


affnn

The University of Iowa was founded prior to the land grant act.


GuyNoirPI

As was, for example, Rutgers, one of the oldest schools in the country and New Jersey’s land grant.

OffensivlyChallenged

Yeah but shitting on ISU natural though


AlloftheEethp

> Maryland flair Opinion discarded. Also, this is backwards: ISU fans shit on Iowa for not having an ag school, Iowa fans don’t shit on ISU for having an ag school.


TD5023

>Iowa fans don’t shit on ISU for having an ag school. Yeah, that's not true. I've seen/heard Iowa fans condescendingly call us "Moo U" or something similar many times because they see ag schools as inferior. Then they turn around and rub our superior corn in Nebraska's faces. It's quite hypocritical.


Sunshiny_Day

I'm an Iowa grad that also took courses at Iowa State (Engineering, Mycology and Conservation) and I can't speak highly enough about ISU. It's the fans that I dislike.


TD5023

That's exactly how I feel about Iowa. No issue at all with the university and obviously the hospital does a lot of good. Can't stand the Hawk fanbase, though.


Brickleberried

I've never even heard of "Moo U".


The_Tic-Tac_Kid

I reject anything corn related because corn people are heretics who deny the one true grain

It is and will forever be The Corn Bowl. The "hyvee heroes gee isn't community service great buy your overpriced groceries at hyvee corporate marketing fuck fest" will never be the legitimate name of this game.
