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 Gophers shirt on, which tipped them off.
Guy making my sandwich was looking forward to the Cal game, knew all about our roster, dropped some history about the program on me (Apparently Jeff Jones was the U's lone five star recruit of the modern era), and was an all around super nice guy.
Dude handling toppings was also a Gopher fan and kept the conversation going.
I don't work for Jersey Mikes, but it was the kind of interaction I wanted to share in case any of you live in that area. I was only passing through, but I like to support businesses with great service and Gopher fandom.
