The Story of Floyd that some of you may know but was new to me. I was aware of the governors of each respective state making the original bet, but had never heard of Ozzie. He must have been a pretty brave kid to deal with all of that. Can’t imagine how hard nosed the game was back then, and...

Look, I'm a man of traditions. I wear a kilt to the renfest, I watch It's a Wonderful Life every Christmas, and I dance the Mamushka at weddings. Bottom line - my friend group has always erred on the side of being corny. Over the last three seasons, I've taken to dressing in a tie and formal...

I want to put you guys on to something. Jersey Mike's in Maple Grove turns out to be a hotbed of Gopher wisdom, lol! I stopped in there last week to grab sandwich (Mike's way, naturally), and I was taken aback by the staff who engaged with me in pretty legit Gopher talk the whole time. I had a...

I’ve been a football season ticket holder for 4 years, donate to Dinkytown Athletes, follow the team obsessively — and yet every year, I get shut out of meaningful perks like tunnel team or on-field access. I’m in third group that makes selections, which basically means I get to pick between a...

The Iowa game had better attendance, but the crowd last night was way more engaged and enthusiastic the whole game. Folks standing for large chunks, music rocking, students acting like maniacs… it felt different. Maybe the pressure was off and everyone just came to enjoy a game, maybe there...

Guys, I just need a space for my grief. Please don't roll your eyes. There is absolutely years of pain behind this post. 1991... 1991 is the last time I saw a MN sports team taste glory - I was six. No, I don't give a shit about the Lynx. Something about this loss feels final. Something...

I prefer the Kill era jerseys, but I'm picky like that. But for those still rowing, or at least holding an oar, this is a relatively good deal. Now if I could just buy a white one.

I've been waffling for a while now - but despite the NW trainwreck that was, I have heeded Fleck's call to action and am now shelling out for the team. Of course, like most of you, I am a season ticket holder, and I plan to buy Duck Duck beer as well (even though I think it tastes pretty bad)...

Hi everyone, This squarely falls in the "let me google that for you" realm of feedback. So please assume positive intent, as I have actually done a modicum of research but am still left wondering. The skinny: I have season tickets, but like to watch the game at home as well (at least the...

So the Gopher's Loyalty program is a benefit to season ticket holders, so this question is directed at all you season ticket holders. I'm only in my second year - and I expect it will take quite a while to build up my gopher score. That said, I was surprised at how thoroughly sold out all the...

Give me a GIF story that illustrates tomorrow's narrative for the MASSIVE hate-week battle! Welcoming Iowa fans to Minnesota: Drinking fireball in a parking lot: Me, greeting every single Gopher fan (and maybe even some Iowa fans) after a few drinks: My sentiment at kickoff: Watching Mo...

I currently plan to renew, but I am thinking of changing seats. Right now, I'm in 131 (moniker be damned). I really enjoy the student section's energy next to my seats, but my viewpoint is rough. So many times this year I've thought a 3 yard gain was 5. Now I might just need to get higher in...

It looks like the BIG Tailgate show will be on campus tomorrow. I have no idea where they will be, or if it's a fan friendly event in the same way that gameday is....but just sharing that they mention this in their show today. Roughly the 24 min mark. Ski U Mah!

Hey there elite! I've been lurking for a long time and this is the season that finally got me to make an account! I've always really enjoyed reading posts on here, and I'm secretly hoping for a "full banana" set of unis someday in the future. If that doesn't tell you how much I lurk maybe...
