Go Go Gophers
- A tribe of native American gopher Indians featured on the
animated cartoon GO GO GOPHERS that aired as part of
UNDERDOG/NBC/1964-66. The main characters in the series were
Ruffled Feather and Running Board, two buck-toothed gopher
Indians living in Gopher Gulch in the 1860s. They were in
constant conflict with
Sergeant Okey Homa,
and blustery Colonel Kit Coyote, the local cavalry fort
commander who wanted to eradicate the gophers population from
the western frontier. Meanwhile, the gophers
sabotaged the fort, the railroad and the telegraphs lines into the
Colonel's headquarters.
