Hey everyone,

I've just got my family hooked on S60 and my mum wanted to know what the 'green beaver type thing with the red sweater/yellow W' represented. We see it often in Danny's office and for the life of me, i can't remember which school it is a mascot for, even though i know i've read the answer somewhere before. I'm in the UK so not overly familiar with US College mascots etc.

I would be very grateful for any answers you guys have.

ill rewatch the series but i dont remember the sweater you described. Matt mentions Danny went to Northwestern which is purple and a tiger so i doubt its a college sweater, maybe a sweater from a skit that someone famous wore.

Yeah, i remembered the canon that Danny went to NorthWestern, and i found it wasn't their mascot. Most often the little green beaver thing is on the credenza behind his desk but it was actually on his desk, i think in the flashbacks in the K&R arc.

Thank you for helping!

Doh, i just realised i typed that it was a W on the beavers sweater, it's actually an 'M' - and i'm an idiot.

Anyway - here's a screen shot of it, if that helps.

You can see it at the side of Danny on the credenza.

thats Goldy Gopher, Minnesota University's mascot. They are the Golden Gophers. no idea why he has it up there though, Minnesota U is about 4 hours from where he grew up...

Ahhh, thank you soooo much! I have no idea why he has it either... maybe his undergrad was there and his postgrad at NW (or vice versa). Shame we only have speculation. But again, thank you so much for the help with this. biggrin.gif
