THE EPIC TALE OF THE
MAD VIKING
ONCE UPON A TIME THERE
VIKINGS EATEN: Currently 4,000+
HOW MANY STATES: Currently we have Vikings from 44
of the 50 states.
HOW MANY COUNTRIES: I admit we never considered
the possibility of international Vikings, but we have a total
of eleven countries represented. Obviously most of our
Vikings are from the USA, but in second place is Poland (8),
Germany (4), France (3), Italy (2) and with (1) Viking each
we have Slovakia, Canada, India, The United Kingdom,
Brazil, Russia, Switzerland AND Australia.
REPRESENT YOUR STATE: From 2004 until 2013 we recorded which state finished the most Vikings. In 2014 and 2015 we recorded the top 5 Viking states. To keep things interesting we are expanding. Starting in 2016 we started recording the TOP 10 VIKING STATES. To the right you will see the current standings. At the bottom you will see past winners. Can you help your state finish in the top 10???

was a restaurant called Spanky's Grille. This restaurant felt it nessessary to make sure no customer left hungry and so offered a mighty ONE POUND BURGERS, dubbed the BANIMAL (half beast, half animal)
Not more than two weeks after opening, two hearty souls (Mark & Brian Zeiber) EACH requested not one, but two of these mighty burgers. After each devoured their monstrous meals, the King and Queen declared that the mighty burger should be placed on the menu and Christened it, THE MAD VIKING.
VIKING TRIVIA
