Vikings Inaugural 'Team Up to Give Back' Features Surprise by 'G.O.A.T.'

MENDOTA HEIGHTS, Minn. – It’s not every day that your favorite NFL player walks in as you’re talking about him, but that’s exactly what happened Wednesday.

When the Vikings visited Friendly Hills Middle School as part of the organization’s “Team Up to Give Back” volunteer day, friends Hamza Mohamed, 11, and Bjorn Aune, 12, chatted in anticipation about whether or not they might get the chance to meet wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

“We were coming back up from outside and saw Stefon Diggs walking in, and I said, ‘He’s the G.O.A.T. – ‘Greatest of All Time,’ ” said Bjorn, who along with classmates explained the acronym to Vikings Owner Zygi Wilf.
