18) If you could live anywhere where would it be?
I wouldn’t mind living in New York, but the weather is not quiet nice enough so I will say California or somewhere warm not in the USA where life is simple. Not a third world country, but some place where it is super relaxed and just nice everyday. I hate wearing pants (would rather wear shorts) and I have socks even more (shoeless is key).
I lived in NYC for 5 years.
The weather is fine.
Better than Edmonton, that's for sure.
You want fake with that sun?
Live in Cali.
You want real life in your face at all times?
Live in NYC.
So NYC with it's concrete,steel,glass and asphalt is real life in your face? I would argue that the Boundary waters would be a better representation of real life in your face ;)
The people are real.
The life is real and vibrant and breathing.
And Central Park is all the green you'll ever need.

Good to get to know more about you. You sound like a real dedicated fan.
Must have been a crazy experience with some good stories, a few years ago when the Oilers surprised everyone and went deep in the playoffs.
I'm not much of a hockey fan myself, but one of my good friends lived for a number of years with his family in Edmonton as a youngster. He went nuts with it, watching those games over here in the middle of the night.
oh i have some great stories. did you guys hear about the stuff that went down in our city during that run? it was freaking crazy. i can sahre if you like.
Please do. I haven't heard those stories.

7) Could you tell us one of your favorite memories that has to do with the Vikings or one of its past or present players, coaches, etc.
Longwell’s kick against the Packers. Before I got Sunday ticket, I had to listen to the games on the radio. Paul Allen. I still have the clip on my computer and listen to it all the time whenever I am sad. And then of coarse going to the game that I went too. That was one super fun weekend. We have VIP tickets, so we got to meet some of the cheerleaders (one of them being my love Stephanie) and Ragnar. Also we got to the game super early and watched them all roll up in the parking lot. Same with after the game. I remember I was waiting for Culpepper to come out, and he was like last to leave. The people we sat beside were really nice too.
Which game was that?
Are you maybe referring to the Edinger FG?
As for Stephanie...you can't have her...she's MINE!!!

Cali gets a bad rap...I lived there and only have good things to say about it...SoCal at least.
NoCal was fun to visit though, so I can't say anything bad about it either.
Not knocking NYC though...I love the city.

Please do. I haven't heard those stories.
Whyte Ave is our party place in the city. it is just off the university so there is tons of bars for about 6 blocks. so this is where the party was happening. after the games, people headed to the streets to celebrate with everyone else. one of the nights i was there was one of the bad violent nights. fires in the streets, glass broken, there was even a shopping cart the mod put girls in naming the cart the titty cart. anyways it was probably one of the craziest, most exciting, and scary night of my life. we watch the game at home and then head over there after so it was already packed when we got there. for about 3 blocks it was so packed you couldnt move. the next round the city figured out that the mess that was caused cannot happen again so they lined the streets with police and shut down the avenve to cars once the game started. then that didnt work so they lined the streets with police and didnt allow people on the road. cops were actually standing arms length apart for those 3 blocks. i am pretty sure you can look up pictures and stories from the edmontonjournal.com and find everything else.
