Minnesota Gophers: Homecoming History #TBT

If you’re curious about the 1914 Homecoming, read my bit from last year The First Homecoming. Today’s post is more of a mix bag of historic photos and fun tidbits (did you know Minnesota has scheduled Ohio State 4 times on Homecoming, and never won once?). The U of M has come up with a really good timeline for the history of Homecoming, filled with fun facts like this one: from 1918-1920 homecoming was put on hold because of rationing during WWI.
