I. Demographics.
Age: 26. Gender: Male. # of years as a Gopher fan: 14. Minnesota Native: Yes.
Hometown: Winona. Current Address: Rochester.
Post Secondary schools and degrees: College degree, BA, Mass Communications/Sports management.
Attend at least one Gopher football and/or basketball game per year: Yes, basketball.
Season ticket holder for Gopher football and/or basketball: No.
II. GopherHole Site (Please be specific):
1. What do you like about the GopherHole site? The information. Many times news can be found here before the traditional media outlets break the story. I enjoy connecting with Gopher fans and hearing their opinions and getting into "discussions."
2. What do you dislike about GopherHole? There is nothing wrong with GopherHole the actual site, its the people that contribute to the threads. Many will not listen to your opinion unless its pro-Gophers all the time. Immediate personal attacks and insults are far too common.
3. What improvements or changes would you like to see implemented? None.
III. Fun Questions.
1. Your favorite football and/or basketball game that you attended: The Gophers-Winona State men's basketball game a few years ago. I thought the atmosphere was great. I love Winona State and I love the Gophers. At the time, it looked the Minnesota would never dig out of that embarrassment, but it turns out, that may have been the turning point. Monson was soon dismissed, Winona State kept rolling and the Gophers got Tubby soon after. Both parties are doing just fine now.
I make it a priority to watch the Gophers against all in-state Division II teams. It's the highlight of the season for the smaller college and GREAT seats are really cheap.
Also, watching Blake go crazy again Northwestern a few years ago was pretty cool.
2. Where have you attended Gopher football and/or basketball on the Road? Nowhere.
3. Who do you attend Gopher games with (spouse, parent, child, friend(s), alone, etc.)? I've attended several games with my fiancee, brother, college friends and family
4. If possible, what non-conference opponent would you like to have on the Gopher schedule annually (football and/or basketball)? I don't think anything is missing from the schedule. I think it would be cool if Minnesota scheduled Notre Dame for football though.
