A Minnesota Institution
"Almanac" is a Minnesota institution that has occupied the 7:00 p.m. timeslot on Friday nights for more than 30 years. It is the longest-running primetime TV program ever in the region.♪♪ >> Eric: IT'S TIME FOR ONE LAST MINNESOTA HISTORY QUESTION THIS YEAR.
FOR THIS WEEK'S EFFORT WE HEAD TO THE WORLD OF PROFESSIONAL SPORTS.
THE YEAR, 1998.
A SEASON THAT ENDED WITH HEARTBREAK FOR MINNESOTA VIKINGS FANS.
MAYBE THIS YEAR WILL BE DIFFERENT?
WHO KNOWS.
OUR QUESTION HAS TO DO WITH A HAPPIER OUTCOME.
AS A MINNESOTA SPORTS TEAM NEARS THE END OF ITS REGULAR SEASON THEY WIN A HIGH SCORING CONTEST, BUT THE SCORE IS NOT THE KEY PART OF THE COMPETITION THAT DAY.
NOT ONE, BUT TWO LEAGUE RECORDS WERE SET BETWEEN BOTH TEAMS ON THE FIELD.
SO THE QUESTION FOR YOU IS: WHAT TWO PROFESSIONAL SPORTS RECORDS WERE SET IN 1998 IN A GAME BY A MINNESOTA TEAM AND ITS OPPONENT?
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU WHETHER YOU'RE CALLING IN FROM ST. NICHOLAS, SANTA CLAUS LAKE OR MISTLETOE CREEK.
