From the article:

"A few cars down from Oster, Walter Bond prepared his tailgate spread. Bond came to Minnesota from Chicago to play basketball for the Gophers. He was on the Minnesota team that reached the NCAA regional finals in 1990.

Bond, who still lives in the Twin Cities, is a motivational speaker.

"I've lived here now more than half my life," he said. "I've become a Vikings fan, a Twins fan. I love Gophers basketball and football. It has been a tough stretch. But I'm a fan. Win or lose won't determine whether I follow them. I've never been a fair-weather guy. I'm committed."
