Welcome to the board. Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself, dbqviking1.

Dubuque is a nice city. A couple of my sister's children went to college there a while back and I was very impressed with the college and city.

Have a great time with your kids at the Packer game. It's good to hear some Vikings fans will be there, at times it almost seemed as though the Packers had a home field advantage with the crowd. These days though I think more Vikings fans are hanging onto their tickets rather than ripping off the Pack fans. :)
GO VIKES, GO HAWKEYES!
I agree on the Vikes. :wink:

Hello all!
Just joined this board and I love all the chat and info. Myself and 3 other friends have had Vikes season tickets for the past five years. We have a blast at the games and try to follow the purple to at least one away game every year. We will be in San Fran this year showing our purple pride and hopefully cheering our team to a victory. I look forward to talking with you all in the future! GO VIKES!

Welcome to our board! And I hope you do consider hanging around after this week, we talk about more than the Vikings here.

It should be a good game Monday night, and I'm sure there will be a decent group of Pats fans attending. The Monday night games usually draw a different crowd since some season ticket holders can't attend due to work and things. I know two of my tickets will be used by Pats fans who moved here from Boston three years ago.

Hey Guy's this is a great site for Viking fans. I've been a Vikings fan for awhile . I grew up watching Cris Carter and Randy Moss which really got me into the Vikes. I live in Canada but the Vikes are my number #1 football team. Go Vikes

I go back almost 10 years with another board - actually a particular crowd that's moved from board to board a few times - but it's now pretty much taken over by two or three people who use it as a venue to insult everyone else, egged on by a couple of Packer fans who can't believe their luck.

Bleh.

Nice to have found a board where you can actually talk Vikings football. Looking forward to being active in the discussions here!

Once again i am sorry this is very late i should have done this 3 months ago! Sorry but i just wanted to post this anyway. :D
