ANF Game Day - October 18, 2025 (Iowa vs. Penn State)

A lot has changed since Hayden Fry created the ANF decal for Iowa's football helmets in 1985 (in the midst of the national Farm Crisis), but one thing remains true – America (still) Needs Farmers!

Help us celebrate the work America's farm families do to provide for our daily needs during the 14th annual ANF Game Day, October 18 at historic Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa!


Game Day Schedule 

Noon: Join Iowa Farm Bureau at the ANF Legends Tent (in Krause Family Plaza, just south of Kinnick) from noon until 5 p.m. to learn why America Needs Farmers while winning great prizes, like a 40th anniversary ANF t-shirt (while supplies last), giant ANF logo chains (while supplies last), sunglasses, sticker sheets and more. Fans will also have an opportunity to personalize their game day experience by creating their own ANF trading card at the ANF Legends Tent.

Autograph Sessions (See schedule below): Iowa Hawkeye men's basketball coach Ben McCollum and Iowa Hawkeye legends Micah Hyde, Chuck Long and Pat Angerer will sign autographs for fans at the ANF Legends Tent.
