Game: Vikings vs. 49ers
Date: September 27, 2009
Announcer: Paul Allen
I grew up a big Brett Favre fan. For my 7th grade picture, I’m wearing a Favre shirt. I was one of those rare people who rooted for both the Vikings and the Packers. So when Favre came to the Vikings, I found myself rooting for them for the first time since 2000. I wasn’t disappointed.
The Vikes easily handled the Browns and Lions to begin the season, but the true test came against the 49ers in Favre’s first game at the Metrodome. The game all but looked over, but then Favre did his thing. As usual, Allen captured the moment.
It seems pointless and redundant to say “that’s fantastic,” but whatever.
