Some of you have undoubtedly seen our maroon and gold tuxedo t-shirts...or our actual maroon and gold tuxedos. You may have witnessed a steak and lobster tuxedo tailgate or, if you were really unfortunate, run into us on one of our Classy Gentlemen Road Trips.

We now bring you Rece$$ion Proof: The Online Home of the Section 117 Cla$$y Gentlemen.

We hope you enjoy our takes on Gopher Football, from Big Party's B1G Word of the Day to the video blog The Constable and The Kellen and much, much more.

Why are we doing this? Because we can. So check it out...or not. And see you in section 117!
 

Love the pictures!! Love the passion.

Go Gophers!!

+1. great work and love the effort/site. thanks for posting. i will just say preemptively to ignore any haters who come and troll your post. Go Gophers! Ski-U-Mah!
 

Very well done, I thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you.
 

Thanks for the positive comments guys. I'm not too worried about haters. We're doing this for fun and it's not like we're forcing anyone to read it.
 



Awesome, awesome awesome work fellas! Keep it up! Very enjoyable read!
 

love the little guy's name. needless to say it takes a classy classy gentleman to pull it off ;)
 

Awesome, thanks for all the positive comments. Higgy, who designed the whole site, just posted his "Four Downs" for the San Jose State game.
 



Well done classy sirs! I sit in Section 219 just above you, and have often admired your fine habadashery from afar, wishing I could join such a debonair and sophisticated group.

Alas, all I can afford is simple triangle of fabric to wrap around my head.

However, if our beloved Gophers find a way to get to the Rose Bowl, I will sell my meager possessions to purchase my own Maroon and Gold tuxedo to wear to the game, and perhaps then I could join your elite social club, if only for a day.
 

It's not often you see man wearing a monacle these days. It requires the wearer to only need corrective help in one eye & of course to be very classy. :cool02:
 

Another 117er here, good work on it and looking forward to checking it out again for other games!
 

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. This is a ton of fun, and we're thrilled with the response. And Gopher Bandanna Guy, we'll have to orchestrate a zip line from 219 to the goal post, which should drop you off right in our vicinity.

Big Party's B1G Word of the Day is up on the blog with some great stuff from yesterday's win. We have a few other big things in the work this week to celebrate 4-0 and hate on Iowa.

Make sure you all vote in our new poll this week. There is only one answer.

Outstanding. I presume the metallic workings of said zip line will be gold plated, while my safety harness will be made from Badger pelts stuffed with Hawkeye feathers, sewn together with Wolverine sinew!

I tip my bandanna to you all!

How else would the zip line be made? +1

We're back with Kellen's latest video blog and a little multimedia special from Higgy.

We also sit in sec 117 (although near the top - rows 29 & 30). We enjoy seeing you classy dudes and your garb as well!
 

Wow, reading the 'Butler's Backtrack', the similarities between last week's 'W' and NIU's victory against us in 2010 are eerily similar, especially when looking at the box score. Wow. Great commentary fellas on the website! Definitely a great read! keep up the good work! :clap:

Hello again friends, Recession Proof is back with a new weekly picks segment. Check it out and leave your prediction in the comments! I hope Brooks is right. A 5-3 Minnesota win would be epic.

Also, here's this week's Four Downs previewing the game. I think you'll all like the Taylor Martinez graphic I crafted.

Hope the Bank is ready to get classy tomorrow. The forecast calls for 100 percent chance of flying money in the sky.
 

Another 117er here. Ready to get classy tomorrow!
 




We sure try! Impossible not to have fun on a day like yesterday. Here's to many more like it!
 

You guys are awesome. Love your genuine enthusiasm and creativity when it comes to supporting our Gophers and having a blast each and every game day. Keep it up. Your kids will thank you for it with all the fun memories you are giving them and for introducing them to Golden Gopher football.

Ski-U-Mah!
 


Awesome reports, Higgy. Keep 'em coming. Kudos to you guys, gals, and kids. :clap: :clap: :clap:


P.S. are you the John Candy of the group???

Thanks supadupafly! And thankfully I don't have kids yet. I'm more cut out for "fun uncle" than "dad" at this point!

Here's my full review of the game, highlighted by our coaches' dominance. What a great game.

Btw, I am pretty sure I have spotted a number of you guys in the various "field rush" photos that are out there. Kind of hard to miss.......what with the top hats and all! :)
