Bucky Badger, that candy-striped fellow from Madison, and Goldy Gopher, the dentally challenged pet from the Twin Cities, have a problem.
If Bucky and Goldy were to enroll in, let’s say, a Medieval Mascot History course at the University of Minnesota’s Twin Cities campus, the Wisconsin-bred Bucky would pay less than the Minnesota-born Goldy, even though they are sitting in the same class in Folwell Hall in Goldy’s maroon-and-gold home state.
