New Stadium


The Minnesota Gophers played their first ever game in the new on-campus TCF Bank Stadium tonight. And they won 20-13 in an exciting game. There was a lot of maroon and gold in the stands and lots more enthusiasm. Check out GopherSports.com for everything you could possibly want to know about those wonderful Gophers.

The photo shows a plaque at the TCF Bank Stadium, or "The Bank" as it is also called, commemorating the first game ever played there.

First Photo of Goldy


Here is my first photo of Goldy on this blog. This was taken at the Minnesota State Fair during the Parade in the afternoon. He is surprised and probably even somewhat flattered to see that I have a smaller version of Goldy Gopher with me at the Fair.

In the background you can see the Tuba section of the Marching Band plus coming up right behind Goldy are the saxophones.

Disappearing Blog

My blog was up then it disappeared and now today it is back again. Hopefully it will stay so that I can post my photos of Goldy. Also appearing in these pages will be other University of Minnesota related photos and information.

Goldy the Gopher

Goldy the Gopher is the best mascot. That is not opinion, it is actual fact.
