Birth of the Cy-Hawk (2019)

In 1977, Iowa and Iowa State renewed their college football rivalry after a 43-year hiatus. A group of ordinary guys - bowling buddies - decided their ought to be a trophy for the game. They pitched in their own money, designed and built a trophy they dubbed "the Cy-Hawk trophy." Then began a long journey to get anyone to take them seriously, which would eventually lead to the Iowa Governor's office. The trophy became an icon of the series, and even after 30+ years, when it was replaced by a corporate-sponsored trophy, the original Cy-Hawk trophy remains a popular reminder of the power of a group of ordinary fans.
