Gopher Glasses 2014

When I showed up at the Fair with Mike and Charisse on August 23, we saw a bunch of people walking around in these wild shades. I turned out there are the cartoon eyes of the University of Minnesota's gopher mascot. I decided I had to have a pair. Charisse and I looked everywhere and finally asked someone where they got them. It turns out it was a U of M booth not far from the Education Building. When we arrived they were, alas, out of stock. We were told they'd be handing out free backpacks soon. I politely declined. I didn't want a backpack. I wanted gopher glasses.
