In this Sept. 25, 2022 file photo, Antigo takes the Gene Shepard Bell Trophy from a cart on the Rhinelander sideline after wining the 2022 Bell Game in Antigo. The Bell’s legs and handle were painted green back then, but has since taken on a less-attractive — at least in Hodag fans’ eyes — hue of maroon the last two years thanks to back-to-back wins in the series by Antigo.
