Ok, so when it comes to pro football, my allegiance is pretty set to a team from the West Coast. But for one day this Sunday, thanks to a certain Thansgiving Day game, I will be all about the color PURPLE and animal horns together for the very first time...
...as on November 30th will be my 1st ever Minnesota Vikings game, ever!

It is a shame that I moved here after "The Homer Dome" was torn down, but I am looking forward to many games at the brand new stadium set to open in 2016!

Now as a diehard fan of a certain team that wears scarlet and gold, I promise not to wear any of those colors to TCF Bank Stadium on Sunday. I promise not to talk about my team's history or especially the date: October 30th 1988. I will dress in at least one thing purple, find some gold too, and recall my admiration for Randall Cunningham, John Randle, Randy Moss, and (even though he was before my time) Fran Tarkenton. What else should I do to get into the Vikings 1st-timer spirit? Email me your suggestions to jw@98country.com

And since my boss Pete is such a huge Vikings fan...I made this video just for him last week in The Cities:
