Where is everybody from that chats on VT?

[WTFVikesfan]

We have new faces here. So where is everybody from? How long have your been a Viking fan? How long have you been a Vikings Territory fan? Some of us go way back to the Strib days.

West Fargo, ND. I started chatting with most of the crew several years back on the Star Tribune. I loved the revolt we had going on when the the Strib changed the chat format. I have been a Vikings fan since for 38 years.

Good idea, WTF.

I'm from Las Vegas. Originally born in Landstuhl, Germany (Air Force). I've been a Vikings fan since 1998. My stepmom, who my dad married that year, was from Minnesota and got me into the games. The rest is history. Followed Adam at Vikings Gab and offered to help out put together the new site and write occasionally.

I'm from Denmark, Europe.
Became a vikings fan during a great game in 2007. A Great running back was simply ripping their defense apart.
- Then I really hadn't a posibility to watch any games due to our TV network not showing many.
But that all changed in 2009, and the first game I watched in 09 was 49'ers @ Vikings, which is one of the greatest games I've ever seen.
I've been following Adam's, and now also Brett's work since Adam wrote at vikingsgab.com

From the Rochester, MN area. Was a part of the Access Vikings standoff on the Tribune as well, leading to the Gab, and then to VT. Been a Vikes fan since their inception... Yes, I am old. Hugh McElhenny, Tommy Mason, Bill Brown, Dave Osborne, Chuck Foreman, Darin Nelson, Hershel Walker, Teddy Brown, Terry Allen, Robert Smith, Chester Taylor, Adrian Peterson... watched 'em all.

CSlinde-
I'm originally from Monticello, MN. I've been a Vikings fan for 36 yrs, pretty much out of the womb. I'm now in Alaska and watch the games with the Arctic Vikings Club when I get a chance. Feels a lot different being a displaced fan, but enjoying all the fans from Vikings Nation!!
SKOL!

[CSlinde]

Oh! Been a fan of the VG/VT for about 4yrs now! Every since I've heard of it! Awesome resource for displaced follwers of the future Super Bowl Champions!

Born and raised in Minnesota, I'm in Cloquet which is just South of Duluth. I have been attached to this team since I first started watching football which was probably at around 8, so I guess I've got 20 years invested in them.

[Carl K]

I am from Indiana. I became a Vikings fan when I was 9 years old. My older brother was a Pittsburg Steelers fan and the first Superbowl I watched was in 1975 when the Vikings lost to the Steelers in Superbowl IX. My Viking fan hood began by me rooting against my brother's team way back then. As a kid I fell in love with the cool purple helmet with horns... I am proud to say I am just as crazy about the Vikings today as I was as a kid.

CAL! Get that link off this blog. Don't you know the evil that lies therein? They buried us alive and left us in blog purgatory.

[Fran the Man]

I'm from Alaska, originally from California but been up here in the Cold country for close to 40 years. Like Coach, I'm an old guy, so I've been a fan since 1961 (Inception)
I had to check that link that Cal provided to the old evil access site. It felt weird and scary to go there. . . .

[CSlinde]

That's crazy. I can't remember what it was about, but I responded to one of their stories shortly after last season. I think I was defending Harvin. They deleted my post!! 'F' 'em!!
