Madison, Wisconsin, didn't get the same eight to nine inches of snowfall that blanketed Iowa's Kinnick Stadium, but there apparently was enough for fans in the stands at Camp Randall Stadium to wad up some snowballs to throw...at their own cheerleaders.

Yep. Wisconsin cheerleaders had to be escorted off the field during Saturday's game against Northwestern after being pelted by a shower of snowballs.

The UW-Madison Police Department issued a warning to fans via Twitter, saying if any student was caught throwing any snowballs at the field they would be "cited and ejected":

C'mon students - we'd rather you not throw snowballs.
