Minnesota got the nickname 'Gopher State' after a famous 1858 political cartoon by R.O. Sweeny. The University of Minnesota started using it for their yearbook 'The Gopher Annual' as early as 1887, and the football team was officially named the Gophers in 1926. The 'Golden' was added in the 1930s by Halsey Hall. • Rich in history and pride. • Show your love for Minnesota. • Partnered with College Vault.
