Steve jobs came up with the iPod idea while wabashing in Icat many years ago.

ICAT is 32 years old.

It originally stood for "I contributed a twenty".  Then they rose the price and it became "I contributed a thirty". Then they raised the price higher than $30 and it didn't stand for anything, it was just ICAT.

Maybe we offer one spot to the best school available and auction off the second.

Lifetime loser Royals fans acting like their newfound Royals fandom is some kind of time or emotional zero sum game cracks me up.

You dumbasses don't care because its rough ridin' May and you know we have no chance of being left out of a power conference, not because of a below .500 baseball team 6.5 games behind the White Sox :ROFL:

I remember it being, "I contributed another twenty", as in, you gave an extra twenty bucks and got better seats and a cheap tshirt.

I also remember that you couldn't get them unless you were a junior due to all of the seniors and juniors buying them up during enrollment.  A few sophomores got them, but my first year, I remember sitting in some awful GA seats because ICAT was gone by the time it came around to me.

K, another honest question, because I seriously don't know (not sure if that looks bad on me or K-State).. but, would BSFS be the best stadium in the Mountain West? What about after CSU builds their new stad?

Yeah, I think the first year I was able to get them was 2001 maybe? 2002?

ICAT was awesome because you could tailgate and roll in whenever with the guarantee of a good seat.  I remember sitting in some godawful seats for the 2000 NU game.

question for people around after me- was it ever Icatt (I contributed also two twenties). I formulated that in my own brain when they went from I contributed a twenty to I contributed a thirty.
