  1. I, obviously, won't be watching. But I will probably check out some of the reaction videos sure to get posted somewhere after the inevitable crushing, most likely last second defeat.

    1. As dpwy said last week, beating the saints in that fashion was better for me than a Super Bowl win because, we’ll because a lot of reasons.

  2. I'm also sold on the skol chant. But then again when mags and I were at Drake they had to form a traditions committee to come up with... traditions. So maybe I'm just used to it?

    1. Apparently, a mob of Viking Fans did the skol chant on the steps in front of the Rocky statue. No one has died yet. I am cautiously optimistic of a 20-13 victory. I will watch what I can. A regular customer of mine is getting married in the afternoon and a few days ago told me they are coming in after the wedding. 25-40 people. So, I must stay and make sure we don't drop the ball on it.

    2. Even though its at Hermann the German (who was not a Viking last time I checked), I love what a New Ulm school did with a beautiful winter shot of the Minnesota River valley

      1. You are correct that Arminius was no Viking but the leader ("warlord"?) of a Germanic tribe around the time of Christ.

  3. I was rooting for Jason Mendoza and Blake Bortles, but a Vikings Super Bowl win will be all the sweeter if it's against Brady and Co. Though I have to say if the Eagles win I'll be hard pressed to watch a minute in two weeks.

    1. I'm only watching the Super Bowl if the Vikings get in. I have zero interest in Pats vs. Eagles.
