 | | September 13, 2004 - It's been 23 years since a football game was last played in Memorial Stadium, but alumni and friends of the University still longingly remember those crisp cool fall days when Gopher Football was played outdoors and on-campus. |
 | | Engineers from BKBM Professional Engineers, the firm that oversaw the stadium's demolition, took painstaking care to label each brick, store, and reconstruct them in the McNamara Alumni Center when it was built in 1999. |
 | | "It was important to the partners who built the McNamara Alumni Center that we included the Heritage Gallery in our plans, because we all felt that the University needed a singular place to showcase its memories, traditions, legends, and heroes," said Margaret Sughrue Carlson, University of Minnesota Alumni Association executive director. |
