Hawkeyes No 1 fan relives near wedding day devotion
Carol Walden a 71 year old Mount Vernon grandmother broke her hip at home on October 17 while watching Iowa against Wisconsin yet insisted on finishing the game. Her obsession with the Hawkeyes earned her an invitation to President Sally Mason in Iowa City where she watched the Minnesota game from the President's Suite at Kinnick Stadium and received a Hawkeye broach. Walden says she plans to attend more games next year and remains humble about her status in Hawk Eye Nation.
