In his younger days, retired U.S. Postal Service worker Al Nedohon of Anoka was also a juggler who performed with his troupe at halftime of a Detroit Lions-Minnesota Vikings game at the Metrodome.
That performance meant the guys got to stand on the 5-yard line to watch the rest of the game. Nedohon recalled the ground “thundering” as Lions’ running back Barry Sanders rumbled out of bounds, narrowly missing some of his gang. “He would have clobbered us,” Nedohon recalled.
Nedohon, 70, is retired from juggling now, but he keeps an eye on the Vikings sidelines and wants to know who all the people are on the sidelines.
