On this Vikings Happy Hour🍻… WHAT. A. WEEK! I hope you all had your Lake Monster beer on hand for that incredible Minneapolis Vikings vs. Buffalo Bills game as the Vikings mounted a 17-point comeback against the pre-season [and still per Vegas] Super Bowl favorite. 

On this week’s Vikings Happy Hour, the crew welcomes Star Tribune’s Ben Goessling, to discuss YOUR Minnesota Vikings! We’ll go over the Vikings vs Bills madness, what makes this team different from years past, and player updates as well as discuss the strong play we’re having in the trenches. We’ll wrap up the show talking about this week’s tough opponent, the Dallas Cowboys, and end with predictions. 

Don’t forget to go to That’s Badass Wood Art to look for incredible wood decor as a great Christmas gift or addition to your home. I’m sure that Justin Jefferson's catch art is already in the works!
