During home games at U.S. Bank Stadium, the Vikings sound a Gjallarhorn — a mythical Norse horn — to announce the start of each home game. The team’s helmet is purple with a Viking horn logo on each side. Each horn is outlined in gold. The horn logo was slightly revised in 2006. The original uniform design consisted of white pants, gold trim, and either purple or white jerseys.
Minnesota made their NFL debut in 1961, defeating the Chicago Bears, 37-13. The Vikings won the last NFL Championship (1969) before the NFL-AFL merger, defeating the Cleveland Browns, 27-7.
When Bud Grant took over as head coach in 1967, the Vikings became one of the juggernauts in the league. During his tenure from 1967-83, the Vikings won 11 division titles, and three NFC titles in 1973, 1974, and 1976.
The Vikings appeared in four Super Bowls in the 1970s. From 2006-08, they had the number-one ranked run defense in the league – the first team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger that a team held it for three consecutive years.
