In this video I examine a common question: Did the original jug, found by Gopher equipment manager Oscar Munson following the 1903 Minnesota-Michigan 6-6 tie, survive to the present day? In other words, is the jug the teams exchange today that same, original crock? We examine the evidence, from the paint jugs, to old photos, to press reports and most importantly, the expert opinion of Ryan Forrey from the Henry Ford Museum.
