    Default Looking for 1968 and 1969 Championship Rings!

    This is Drago. We have photos of all the rings, except the 68 and 69 rings for the Championship issue of Bison Illustrated. Does anyone know of anybody who has them in Fargo or close to Fargo? So we can get a photo. We are also in a time crunch.

    Also, email me some high resolution photos from your trip to Frisco and we will put them in the magazine.

    If photos are too big upload them here: http://www.wedomagazines.com/ad-uploader/

    We go to print Thursday the 31st.

    Thanks, and remember to keep an eye on the punt!

    I could be mistaken, but when the Valley News Live morning show did a show at the Dome for GSU, I'm pretty sure NDSU loaned them rings from the 60s. They said they were unclaimed rings, so maybe that's something to look into, if you haven't already.

    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    Yes, working on the E-commerce online store as we speak.

    The issue is turning out awesome!

    We hosted photo shoots with Gene Taylor, President Bresciani, Brock Jenson, Marcus Williams, Cole Jurik, 4 more players, We also dedicated a two page spread to each 15 games.

    We also took photos of each of the 10 national championship trophies and 8 of the rings so far.

    If you leave tailgating hungry and thirsty, you're doing it wrong

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    Unclaimed rings?

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    May be the NCAA didnt issue rings back then? So later on NDSU or TM had rings made but not everyone picked theres up considering the years that had passed?

    That very well could be...makes sense to me. I thought it was odd that you would skip picking up your National Championship ring...
