Club funding for helmets still unsure The Government of the Student Body discussed funding helmets for the Iowa State Recreational Hockey Club on Wednesday. The group asked for $500 to fund 20 helmets. “If we invest in the helmets we need to invest in them properly,” said GSB Senator Sean Morrissey. Speaker of the Senate Nate Dobbels was concerned about the funding. Dobbels said the club is a first year club, and GSB does not fund first year clubs because they might fall through. The decision of whether or not to fund the club was not made at the time of deadline. Daily Staff

Passing down tradition Cyclone family hopes to keep spirit going By Leah.DeGraaf @iowastatedaily.com Through three generations, the Muhlbauer family has left no question as to where their unwavering support lies. Passion for Cyclone football unites three generations of Muhlbauer men from Manilla, Iowa: Louis, Gary and Kyle. Senior Kyle Muhlbauer, is the third leg of this trio. Four years ago, Kyle and his three high school friends, Zack Wiig, Dustin Christensen and Jesse Sebern, kept the family’s Cyclone football pride alive with the purchase of an old school bus. All four men are or soon will be Iowa State graduates. The bus, which has transported enthusiastic Cyclone fans to football games for the past four years, has united an entire western Iowa community with a common passion, and created lasting bonds between ISU students. Now painted blue with cardinal and gold accents, Kyle calls the “recreational vehicle” a true symbol of Cyclone pride. The family’s Cyclone football legacy begins with Louis J. “Louie” Muhlbauer, the grandfather of Kyle Muhlbauer. Louis played football for Iowa

Last game marks the end of tailgating By Shagun.Pradhan @iowastatedaily.com With Iowa State’s last home football game on Nov. 18, the tailgating lots will soon be emptied until the next football season. The fans have left their mark for the season, and the tailgating lots will become the forsaken. Jason Adair, junior in supply chain management, expressed his thoughts on tailgating. “The things I enjoy most about football season is being able to tailgate and go to the game with my buddies in our
pristine cardinal and gold overalls,” he said. “The overalls are a must at every football game along with the four Bs. The four Bs are: brats, bags, burgers and last but definitely not least, beer.” Creative and delicious foods are well renowned at football games. “I usually like to make appetizers and then a nice warm pot of my special chili,” said local chef Bill Kirkman. “When it gets cold out, there is nothing better than hanging out with friends and eating great food.” Ames native Doug Warren would also have to agree. “I make my own cheese dip,”
