My favorite Vikings trivia question: When they traded Tarkington to the Giants, who did they trade him for?
If you mean the four draft picks the Vikings received for Tarkington, that’s an easy one. If you want to know who those draft picks turned out to be, that would take more research.
One of the most frustrating things about having lived for all XLVIII games is the trivia I remember that is tough to verify.
Case in point: As Max McGee crossed BEHIND the goalpost to haul in the first “Super Bowl” score, I distinctly heard the announcer mention that Max McGee had been a jet pilot. Years later, when I mentioned this on a radio call-in show, Will McDonough (the late/famous Boston Globe sportswriter) told me I was probably wrong.
It took me years of searching on the internet to verify this fact. By then, both McGee and McDonough had died.
1967 seems so long ago!
