One gesture brings together tens of thousands of football fans each week and is known as “The Wave.” It happens at every home game at the University of Iowa right after the first quarter. Everyone in the stadium, more than 70,000 people, turns and waves up to the kids at The Stead Family Children's Hospital that overlooks the stadium. Many of the kids are fighting for their lives, and “The Wave” is a way to pick up their spirits. #InsideEdition
Buckeye fan here and I'm really honored we were able to be part of this. Massive respect for the Hawkeyes, there's nothing quite like the big ten!
Shouldn't take football to bring us together. Man i wish the world would change
The best new tradition in college football.
Billy Sou I agree
True
I’m a life long penn state fan. The white out is the best tradition in college football, the Iowa wave is the best tradition in the history of mankind.
Totally agree 110%
@@ZacBLive Mad respect, mate. I'm a current Hawkeye and I have to agree with this.
As an Ohio State fan, dotting the eye is no longer the best tradition in college football. AWESOME JOB, IOWA!!!!!!! Big 10 proud!!!
Any child sick or hurt or having to fight for their lives seeing it just tears me up if anyone reads this please take a minute and bow your head and pray for those beautiful children please.
I’m moved to tears. Thank you all for thinking of our little once.
Huge Tennessee fan here, so no Iowa bias when I say ... This is BY FAR the greatest tradition in college football! More than the Vol Walk, Rocky Top and even running through the "T" . Absolutely amazing.
A great way of showing love and kindness❤❤
attend all the home games
The best college football tradition ever. It's not even close. Just became aware of it today. I don't care if Iowa ever wins another game. Their university, their program, their fans and their players will always be champions in my book.. I'm a cynic and hate efforts to try and manipulate me but this is real, important and beautiful.
This is so special and a moment none of those kids will forget.
That's literally the sweetest gesture in all of sports lol
I am a huge Badger fan from southwest Wisc. A big fan of "jump around" that takes place at the end of the 3rd quarter at Camp Randall in Madison. But what takes place at Kinnick Stadium with the players, coaches and fans all waving to the sick children and their families is absolutely the most amazing thing I have ever witnesses at a sporting event. Period. Way to go Iowa!!!
One of the most BEAUTIFUL GESTURES I have ever SEEN. The UNIVERSITY OF IOWA and VISITING TEAM, here the OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL TEAM, waving to the to the children on the top floor of the Children's Hospital. Not just the teams, everyone is waving. This is FANTASTIC, GOD BLESS THE IOWA HAWKEYES.
Coming from a buckeye fan, iowa fb deserves alot of credit!
Thank you!!!
This touch my heart made me cry I really hope this make the children’s day love to all of them fighting be strong 💪🏾❤️🙏🏾
I THINK THIS IS JUST AWESOME
Clemson fan & mom of a special needs kid that has spent a lot of time in the hospital here. I can't put into words how much I love this❤️
Just a reminder to always remain grateful
Kids should never have to go through any of that, sad...awesome idea!
Proud to be an Iowan!
Now honestly I've been here for a minute thinking of how to pronounce that it's such a confusing word eye-yo-wan or eye-yo-win
Yurri eye oh in
Bee Sha same
Kyrie Swervin uhm iowa an
Bee Sha me to!
How heart warming , almost cried
GOD BLESS THOSE KIDS
Got to see this at the Wyoming game and it is so wholesome
This gives me the warm fuzzies. Epic on so many levels!!! Major props the the University of Iowa. Definitely one of my favorite stories of this year!
Reason why top 10 teams have a hard time against iowa here. Inspiring! Go hawks! Respect from Michigan State.
Thanks javi009z. Michigan St and their fans have always been respected by Hawkeyes................You're good people.
Go Blue! Lol.
But more importantly, those kids need a lot, and what they're doing in Iowa City is a 110% class act.
I live in Iowa and I went to a game and it was cool
so many people waving
This gave me chills
How
Whoever had the idea to put the pediatric hospital next to the stadium with that view needs a big pat on the back and an even bigger hug. Remember being a kid and college football players were like demigods? Now imagine how these kids must feel to have them all taking a minute to wave and acknowledge you! It's painful, sad and totally inspiring all at the same time! As a life long Michigan fan and Big Ten fan I have nothing but huge respect for the Hawkeyes; even if Kinnick Stadium has been the site of many shattered seasons. Go Blue, Go Hawkeyes!
R E S P E C T
I had to cry tears of joy...
May All those Kids feel better soon 😍😍😍
Nice greetings from Germany
Never been prouder to be an Iowan
A big wave from me. Best thing I've seen in a very long while.
Thats an awesome view of the stadium
I’m so glad to hear that
Such a wholesome tradition, love it!!!!
Beautiful
God bless those precious children. Go Hawkeyes
For some reason, I just started think about this while sitting on my couch and decided to look it up here on RUclips. Prayers.
Amazing! love is in the air!!
BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES.
I’m from New Jersey. Huge college football fan. This is my new favorite college football team.
I want to make it to one of y'all's football games just to do that! I find it impressive as well that the other opposing teams wave !
Well done Iowa.
As a buckeye fan, Iowa is a class act program from the ANF campaign to this. Two thumbs up for the Hawks!
Love this so so much
True love. Amazing 👍👍
Blessings! Off this and the hand holding as a team coming out to play. When NCAA Football 23 comes out I'm going to Iowa. 💪🏾💯❤
Amazing and Awesome. 😀
Wonderful
As an Iowa State fan, and alumni, i can only hold admiration for a program that while bitter rivals conduct themsleves with class in unbelievable ways. From one grateful ISU father who once used the UofI Childrens Hospital........GO HAWKS!Keep in mind, at least they didn't say Ohio or Idaho! Only those of us from Iowa will get that. lol
There's some things that you just have to put aside the rivalry for, this is defiantly one of them. I'm a diehard Hawkeye but I don't hate State, just when they play us haha. I hope your child is well...Go Hawks!
Hey got to have massive respect for Carson King as well will all the money he raised for the hospital
This is awesome
Aww that's sweet
Inspiring
That is epic!!!
YAY!!! A WAVE OF LOVE💗😍😍😍👋
A beautiful tradition - I didnt know about this until just now, watching Hawkeyes v. Spartans
I live here.. Damn.
Left, right, or center. You got to love America.
My favorite college tradition
Absolutely fantastic. Great job iowa.✝️🇺🇲
I look forward to doing this in 3 weeks
God Bless
That's class.
nothing is like the hawkeyes
Waving 👋 From Michigan to The little Iowa State Hawkeyes Fans get well soon
I’m a Hawkeye fan and I have yet to join the big wave it’s one of my goals!
As an Iowa State fan I hate Iowa but this is awsome
Wow!💙..
Who here after they put this in NCAA
facts
Ohio State 24
Iowa 55
Marco Plays REALLY that was the score?
ImAFox 842428 yes
Aaaawwwww
So sweet
😢🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was there
It's the best tradition yet. Which college or pro football team can top this?
There is a reason the Midwest is called "The Heartland."
The world ain't a bad place after all
Especially in moments like this
This is a cute story
14 people went thumbs down here.....seek psychological help immediately...
🤘💖
The wave has been added to the new ncaa football game
i couldn’t help but look it up & man i think this is the best tradition in any sport
Come On. Can’t have one moment for Iowa without mentioning the goddamn buckeyes
Children getting cancer is the only reason I question if a god exist - it breaks my heart to see them fight for something they don’t understand 💔
Never forget the innocents.
How about the others on the other side facing away from the stadium
The real question is why is a children's hospital built right next to the stadium wouldn't it get to loud for a hospital
Roman That was the point of it being built there, to encourage the kids.
The rest of the University Hospital is connected. The old childrens hospital is right behind the new one.
For 6 or 7 weekends out of the year? What a dumbass response.
Many universitys have medical buildings attached. Good for the students.
#tradition. Next question.
Oh wow 9 dislikes
This is what makes Americans great people.
Go Hawks!
Notification squad!
Go hawks.
,
Let’s go buckeyes
Neil.The.Young.Baller 12 They got smoked
I’m impressed that an entire audience would pay sick kids attention. But please parents, stop forcing the sick ones to wave back! They’re sick for peep’s sake.
Early?
