What is the name of the Viking that stands in the center of a rural town in Minnesota that represented the Midwest in the New York World's Fair? And what is the significance of Vikings to this town?
A Good Question
Responses:
Oh please. Giving us a quiz? What are you going to do if we answer your question? Give us points? I'm sorry, we're not playing this game.
But I know the answer!
Mike, we've talked about this before. Admitting that you know obscure trivia about the midwest is not a good thing.
I think I know what you're talking about, it's a big fiberglass Viking that's sort of a roadside attraction in Alexandria, and I know this because my family drove by it once when we were on vacation and I had to stop there because I was trying to read in the car and I got sick. I mean, I can read in the car now no problem but I was like six and I think I ate something funny too right before but I'm not sure.
And so like anyway it was built for the World's fair and its name is "Big Ole" or something like that and it's because of a runestone they found near the town that they think might be evidence there were Vikings there like 100 years before Columbus which would be really neat if it were true but I'm not sure.
Oops! Was I not supposed to say anything? I'm sorry!
Ah crackers, now she's going to get all the points. Thanks a lot Tom.
So should we give him points or anything? I mean, I can't get points can I? That would be cool I guess but it's not really fair. Or does he only get points if we don't answer? If that's the way it works, geez, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to mess it up. If you knew the answer Mike I shouldn't have said anything. I'm not really sure if I'm right so if you think it's something else go ahead ok?
My ruling is....
No points for you!

Hey, Come on! You wouldn't even be here if not for that question!
Yes I would. I'm world famous!
Oh, fine. 6 points.
Go Vikings!
Now consider carefully: Do you go for two or take the kick?
