The threat of severe weather might have altered some Homecoming 2013 plans, but it certainly wasn’t enough to sweep away the assembly of Hawkeye spirit in Iowa City on Oct. 4 and 5.

The Homecoming parade swept through the streets of downtown, Third Eye Blind performed indoors to an energized crowd, and Hawkeye fans provided Kinnick Stadium with a bonanza of black and gold.
