It had happened only three times since 1986, so when the Minnesota Golden Gophers dominated Michigan last season and took home the Little Brown Jug, they wanted to commemorate it.
Replicas were made of the Jug, the oldest trophy in college football, and each player received one.
There was one left.
Former Michigan equipment manager Jon Falk spent 40 years at Michigan, and for 37 of those years, the Wolverines won the game and retained the Jug, which he was charged with handling. It seemed only fitting when Minnesota equipment manager Kyle Gergely realized there was one replica remaining that Falk should be the recipient.
