University of Minnesota.
Goldy Gopher apparently never saw it coming — a sucker punch smack in the nose above his heartwarming bucktoothed grin.
An annoyed fan — a University of St. Thomas math professor and a devoted University of Minnesota booster — socked the fuzzy-suited mascot after tiring of his antics during a men’s gymnastics meet Saturday night.
The mascot-mauling left the professor red-faced, regretful and banned from the University of Minnesota’s Sports Pavilion and Williams Arena for a year …
What a shame.
Men’s gymnastics needs every fan they can get. 🙂
