What I learned, Iowa edition

[Purple_Pills]

Something I learned today:

The “ANF” logo that both Iowa players and fans both sport is not the initials of a passed local hero, but really means “America Needs Farmers.” They sport that logo even though Iowa State is the aggie school of Iowa.

They were sporting those stickers back when we? played them in the 1991 Rose Bowl.

Is that why Syracuse has an “AROD” logo? I always thought it was a tribute to Alex Rodriguez, now I am thinking it stands for “America runs on Dunkin?”

Correct. Started by Hayden Fry in ‘85 during the Farm Crisis.

As noted earlier, it also chaps the ass of Iowa State who have an unofficial counter slogan of AHF - Actually Helping Farmers

Good thing Don James didn’t start America Needs American Loggers during the spotted owl fake crisis that more than decimated* the local timber industry.

(decimate means eliminating 10%, and WA timber industry took a more than 10% hit)

I laugh on the inside every time I go to google analytics because I predictive type google anal and then hit return.
just don’t accidentally search that instead of going to past URL’s. Or do, what ever.
