'Letters to Bud' Chapter 5: From the Fans, With Love

The final two chapters of “Letters to Bud” are near and dear to my heart in a whole different way than the first three installments.

We’ve spent the past three weeks showing you letters written by names that most likely were recognizable to many – from Richard Nixon and Archie Manning, to Bobby Bryant, to last week’s Minnesota Ties featuring Herb Brooks and Halsey Hall.

The next two segments, however, are dedicated to the fans. Those who may or may not have met Bud Grant but felt a connection and deep respect for the Hall of Famer.
