1977 Topps 150 (Ron Yary Vikings)

Sunday's Seahawks v. Vikings game was an intense grind!

This past Sunday was the 3rd coldest NFL game (the Vikings were also in the 7th and 8th of the Top 10 coldest NFL games - December 3rd and 10th in 1972). Ron Yary, a Viking for 13 years, was playing at that time. He's got a laundry list of career highlights including election into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2001.


What I Like About this Card: Great commemoration of Ron's 6 All Pro selections (his sixth and final was in 1976).

Fun Facts:  Ron attended Bellflower High School, named their football field Ron Yary Stadium in 2001.

Random Thoughts: The card back feels futuristic almost like it belongs on Star Wars or Star Trek card.
