Great! More room for fake hockey jerseys, shot glasses, and empty racks where a decent (or should I say expected) selection of gopher football jerseys will NOT be located.
How about some DVD's other than the 2 Gopher hockey championships? Are there not a few games in the 100+ years of playing football that they can package together? How bout a nice tailgating section? Canopies? Nope, but Target does.

But on the bright side its a great location and a great addition to the stadium. A one stop shop. I'll still do my xmas shopping there and now will be able to make a swing into the Hall of Fame while doing it.

I think I saw tailgating stuff in the window.

They do have tailgating materials. They have the ball toss game, with a different name then was discussed in the previous thread. I think they referred to it as tailgate golf or something. The second level wasn't open yesterday. There were quite a few unique items that I haven't seen before including a fair amount of inaugural TCF season materials.

They won't have heavy jackets in stock until mid October. I didn't see any high quality rain gear materials but they had some rain ponchos, and not nearly enough gear with solid gold. It's a good store and hopefully they'll listen to any requests.
