Minnesota Vikings: One year after the Minneapolis Miracle

There are certain moments that one will remember for the rest of their lives. For some people, that may be the day they got married. For others, it might be the day their first child was born.

For myself, there is only one day that I believe deserves the title of the happiest day of my life.

January 14, 2018: The Minneapolis Miracle.

Sitting — standing, actually — in the stands that January evening, I went from a feeling of despair to pure euphoria with one Case Keenum throw to Stefon Diggs.

The 61-yard, walk-off touchdown not only put the Minnesota Vikings ahead of the New Orleans Saints, it seemingly washed away decades of bad vibes for a franchise that hadn’t been to the Super Bowl since 1977.
