<p><span>The Paul Bunyan Governor’s Trophy was first presented by then-Governor (and Michigan alum) G. Mennen Williams in 1953 as a means of welcoming Michigan State to the Big Ten Conference. Deemed by many a political publicity stunt, the trophy traveled between Ann Arbor and East Lansing to little fanfare for a few years. However lengthy winning streaks by each school over the years have given Paul a much higher profile. Big Ten pride and tradition are evident today, as winning Spartans or Wolverines are quick to grab Mr. Bunyan and take him home once the clock hits 0:00.</span></p>
<p>Paul stands 13 inches tall and 5.5 inches wide. He weighs 4 pounds, making the perfect centerpiece for your man cave, bar, or tailgate table.</p>
