Rep. Don Bacon, who represents Nebraska’s 2nd district in the U.S. Congress, shared a series of posts on September 6, 2025, reflecting on game day traditions and recent community engagement.
In his first post at 15:35 UTC, Bacon wrote, “Bacon likes polish sausages with sauerkraut, onions, mustard and jalapeños on game day! Show us below how you do game day! Wishing everyone a fun and safe football season.”
An hour later, he posted another message expressing enthusiasm for local sports: “I’ll be the guy you hear yelling from the West side of the stands! Go Big Red!” This statement references support for Nebraska’s popular college football team.
Later that afternoon at 18:06 UTC, Bacon highlighted his interaction with local students: “Great to visit with Westside students yesterday and discuss current national topics.”
Don Bacon has represented Nebraska’s 2nd District since 2017 after succeeding Brad Ashford. Born in Momence, Illinois in 1963 and currently residing in Papillion, Bacon graduated from Northern Illinois University in 1984 and also attended the University of Phoenix.
