But why didn't you wear any purple? My girlfriend says it looks like you're posing as Capitan Morgan. heh :) Historic day to say the least. I thought it was touching that they thanked us fans for being there and supporting them through all of this. Maybe now I can finally get the Viking tattoo I've been putting off for so many years waiting for a decision. I think I'll get it the day the gold shovel goes into the ground. Thanks again Cory and all the fans who hung out at the capital over this past week. Tiring but fun. Nice picture in the Strib of our bunch in the senate gallery Cory.

Plain and simple. If the Republicans are serious about killing the Vikings Stadium bill over their tax bill that was vetoed, Vikings fans in Minnesota and around the world are going to be extremely angry. The stadium bill had better be passed in the House & Senate. The Vikings have been in Minnesota for 52 years and that is where they belong.
