Most are familiar with the $5 Bits of Broken Chair Trophy that started as an soulless contrived corporate sponsorship that nobody cares about organic fun rivalry trophy after an interaction between Goldy Gopher and Faux Pelini on twitter. After a few years both athletic departments tried to kill and bury it, and it disappeared for a time. Some fans of both schools got together, said “that’s bullshit”, and decided to re-make the chair, and use it as a fundraising opportunity for charity.
If Minnesota wins, all proceeds will be donated to Team One Four, whose goal is to raise one million dollars toward the creation of an enhanced and upgraded transfusion center on the 9th floor of the M Health Fairview Masonic Children’s Hospital.
If Nebraska wins, proceeds will go to the Team Jack foundation, who’s mission is to raise money to fund impactful pediatric brain cancer research and work to create national awareness for the disease. Team Jack is named after Jack Hoffman, who ran for a touchdown in Nebraska’s 2013 spring game.
Also, Bettor Edge agreed to donate $5,000 to the fanbase’s charity that gets the most votes on their site.
