The Vikings have been my favorite team since I could talk crap about the packers. I was born in Winona, Minnesota and grew up in Rollingstone. I am now in Seattle, WA. (I have been bragging about getting hutch to my buddies over here). I love purplepride.org, I have been reading this site for a couple years, but I was just too lazy to start an account. So hello everyone.

Hey, glad to have you aboard.
Don't let your buddy tell you how the Vikes are the "most hated" team in the NFL. We love 'em. Glad you do, too.

Welcome, lazy!!! :razz: Just kidding...welcome to the site...you should hook up with Navycoach, who is also in the Seattle area, for a beer or two. Also, PacNWVike is in eastern Washington state and is a good guy to talk Vikings with.

Hope to see you posting more here...and keep the purple faith strong in Washington state (and I don't mean the Huskies!) :lol:

Welcome aboard neighbor!

Hey Bruggie PM me your real name if you feel like it. I'm quite familiar with Rollingstone & Winona. I grew up in Goodview & Winona myself. I graduated WSHS in 1977 & now live in Fountain City.

I trust you're familiar with Rocco's!

How long have you been living in Seattle?

**bruggie34** · 03-14-2006, 10:59 PM

wow, I wasn't actually expecting to get posts...nice, thanks guys. You don't have to worry, I cheer for only Minnesota teams over here...so that means the Gophers over the Huskies as well.

I actually only lived in Rollingstone until I was 12 then my family moved over here. So most people tell me to swtich sense I have spent the majority of life in Seattle, but why would I go and do a stupid thing like that.

Man you don't know how much things have changed around here in the last 10 years. Winona Junior High where you went to school is now all apartments & a new school was built out on Homer Rd.

Rollingstone is growing everyday.
