Check out more postgame jug photos here, and of course pregame shots here. Slash! Gardner heading here: Gardner and Capt. Robinson comparing notes Gopher drumline adding some pageantry Gang tackle. There are few extra legs and feet in there somehow like the Iwo Jima Memorial Deep sigh. Guys, it’s hard to take the ‘No More Minnesota Nice’ thing seriously when you flash the hearty double thumbs up next to Mandy Pepperidge – who herself looks like she just found a box of puppies. And memo to the guy below: I know Gangnam Style is irresistible but you made a commitment when you put on that shirt and the eye black.

I’m not sure it’s the best view of the game, but I think it’s a choice place to sit next time you visit. Despite the empty seats the Gophers still definitely sold out. “What, take off our hats? Are you out of your mind?” Minnesota flashes their league championships on a ring on the stadium. I like it. More on 1904 later. Rawls and Norfleet feeling it pregame to Snapbacks and Tattoos.
