I have given a rats ass about the Viqueens since Bud Grant caved and allowed them sideline heaters. He promised that they could have heaters if and when they won the Super Bowl.

And then playing indoors, thus giving away their fundamental strategic advantage over every team in the NFL, save one?

The Viqueens have been dead to me for many decades. Even before this current collective tantrum.

Bud Grant never gave in. he was forced to do so by the NFL. So do not hold him to blame

Plus, he didn’t build the stadium. He was just the coach. So again, do not blame him.

Being a Rams fan, I always hated the Vikings. However, I came to admire Gary Larsen, who moved out to Southern California and became active in the Young Men's Christian Association and other charitable causes. He belonged to a cohort of defensive linemen known as the Four Norsemen (the others were Allen Page, Jim Marshall and Carl Eller)--and with the name Larsen, was the only one who was actually a Norseman.
