We lived in Minneapolis during the early days of the Vikings - even our 18-month son was a fan (have a photo to prove it). He's continued to this day, and even had the chance to meet a few Viking players in Phoenix when he was a bit older. The players were 'real people' that mostly lived in the area and even grew up there - kicker Fred Cox was a local dentist, Karl Eller was a UofM standout (and became a state supreme-court justice), Bill Brown was a never-say-die runner, coach Bud Grant a stoic in the land of snow and ice, etc. The 'bad news' is that the "Minnesota Vikings" book also brought back the painful trips to the Super Bowl. What a team, what memories, such a book -

I purchased this book for my son for Christmas. Just before Christmas, he told me he would like to have it. I looked around a couple bookstores in my area and they were out of it. I buy alot of books from Amazon, so I thought, I'd see if they had it. Yes, they did! However, it was scheduled to arrive after Christmas; because, I was ordering it so close to the holiday. Amazon came through again for me, it arrived Christmas Eve day. I was able to wrap it up and gave it to my son Christmas Day. Thanks, Amazon!!
