[QUOTE="BilldGopher, post: 518319, member: 4315"] Agree...that's a very cool rendition of Buzz. Some of you may know/remember that Lou Holtz was Minnesota's HC for 1984-85 before jumping on to Notre Dame. Goldy looked like this when Carpetbagger Lou arrived: [IMG]https://twin-cities.umn.edu/sites/twin-cities.umn.edu/files/styles/panopoly_image_original/public/1986-goldy.gif?itok=T0fgrb4Y[/IMG] ...but during his tenure Goldy was made to look like this: [ATTACH=full]4810[/ATTACH]...often called "Angry Goldy." Well, there was such a hullabaloo about "Angry Goldy" scaring little kids that he only lasted for one season...and went back to "Nice Goldy." Messing with mascots is no minor thing...but UM was already super-PC long before it became culturally fashionable...a.k.a. can't have a "mean mascot." I've got a number of Angry Goldy souvenir items that are treasures now. Sure similar for Jacket fans as Buzz has evolved over the years. [/QUOTE]
