Minnesota Vikings: A professional NFL football team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Vikings joined the National Football League as an expansion team in 1960. Throughout the franchise’s history, they have had one of the highest winning percentages in the NFL. They are also one of only five NFL teams to win 15 games during the regular season.

The Vikings have won one NFL championship. Since the merger they have made the playoffs 24 times, 3rd in the league. The team played home games at Metropolitan Stadium through the 1981 NFL season and have played their home games at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome since 1982.

During home games at the Metrodome, the Vikings Gjallarhorn is loudly played and sounds often after the team has made a big play, gets a first down, or scores a touchdown. In addition, a flash cannon fires upon Vikings touchdowns.
