The Little Brown Jug was originally purchased by Michigan prior to their 1903 contest against Minnesota out of fear that the host Gophers wouldn’t provide clean drinking water. The Jug didn’t become a traveling trophy until 1909, still qualifying it as the oldest such trophy in major college football. Adorned with scores from every game for over a century of Big Ten gridiron action, The Brown Jug is neither little nor brown. This thirty-cent purchase from a Minnesota general store is, however, recognized beyond Big Ten borders as a symbol of the conference’s unmatched tradition.

 

Nearly identical in size to the actual Little Brown Jug, this one may not gain spousal approval for the dining room, nor may it fit on a traditional bookshelf. However, this is a must-have for the diehard Gopher or Wolverine. This Jug has a 12-inch diameter, stands 15 inches, and weighs 7 1/2 lbs. The jug that has traveled back and forth from Ann Arbor to Minneapolis checks in with a 12-inch diameter and stands 15 7/8 inches.
