Welcome Berk! As you can see by my post total, I'm pretty new here myself. This place is great, and I'm sure you'll fit right in. I love hearing how our Purple Pride flows so far through the U.S. I'm in Utah myself, and feeling pretty lonely in my endevor to represent for the Norsemen. Keep up the good work!

:grin:

Yeah one really interesting thing about vikings fans is that most of them arnt even from minnesota! The only thing thats going to suck is after they start winning superbowls we are going to get all those bandwagon jumpers like the cowboys had, but i guess thats the price you pay.

I would have to say the percentage of fans in greater in Minn. You can spot a "bandwagon" fan a mile away!
Was was Fran Tarkenton? Toomy Kramer who? :lol:

Hello fairly new here myself and I know how difficult it can be being away from the Viking motherland. When you find a few that have the same passion as you do it can make for many good times and pssibly friendships that last a lifetime. there I go gettin all mushy.

So sad to see that you are STUCK in Boston with all of those obnoxious Patsy fans!

Hey Berk,

Welcome Brother,

Do you go see the Red Sox at all?.....my buddy has weekend home game season tickets, and he has had them since the very early 1980's...He even went to two of the world series games last year. I was happy for this very good friend of mine. He truly bleeds Red like we do Purple, maybe this is our year to get the monkey off our backs....

Sometimes he gives me the tickets if he can't go. They are right behind first base and guess who sits in front of us?.....The Author Stephen King, he's from Main also, really nice guy and he loves the Red Sox, personaly I'm a Dodgers Fan....

Another funny thing is, another really good friend of mine went to Berklee, his name is Mike and he plays the quitar. I remember hanging out in his basement in High School and listening to him play and record his own music. Very talented and super guitar player, I'm sure if I remember correctly his favorite quitar player was Jeff Beck, you could close your eyes (if the Ganga didn't already do it for you..LOL..) and you would swear it was Jeff Beck himself playing...Anyway, he did go to Berklee after high school.......He still plays to this day.....

Welcome to the site, hang around and maybe I could show you to a Red Sox game this summer.......

Ever go to Rathskellers in B-Town?.....Great Pre and Post game hangout.....

Welcome, Viking Ned
