Did You Know...

Driven by a particularly strong defense, the Minnesota Vikings had a pretty good 2008-09 season, winning the NFC North, though their first round loss in the playoffs emphasized their need to strengthen their offense. In an effort to do just that, they set their sights on quarterback Brett Favre, who hemmed and hawed through mid-August, but finally signed a 2-year deal with the team on August 18th. With Favre at the helm and arguably the best running back in the league today in Adrian Peterson, plus a defense so impressive they’ve been called the “Four Norsemen of the Apocalypse”, the Vikings have a real shot at the Super Bowl in the 2009-2010 season. Sure, watching The Vikes on TV is fun, but can you really compare it to the thrill of seeing your beloved team crush their opponents right in front of you? See it all for yourself with tickets to HHH Metrodome and cheer on the Minnesota Vikings to victory!

Some Minnesota Vikings history: The Vikings joined the NFL as an expansion team in 1961 and selected Fran Tarkenton in the NFL draft. The franchise got off to a slow start, producing only one winning record in its first seven seasons. In 1967 Minnesota traded Tarkenton to the New York Giants.
