Stuff like this makes me feel old and cranky. Suffice to say, I will not be wearing these to any Gopher games. Actually, given the nightmare that was last season, I may skip out on the season tickets this year anyhow...

BTW, the talking beer bottle opener does not have Goldy Gopher on it, just the letter M. Now, if you use that to open a bottle of Hamm's beer you know you're in heaven.
