Happy Thirsty Thorsday, everyone! We've almost made it, one more day until the weekend.

Vikings news from elsewhere:

From Vikings.com, Joe Berger grew his family, as he and his wife adopted a daughter.

Here are 5 fan-favorite videos of Chad Greenway from Vikings.com.

PFF ranked Peterson & McKinnon as the 5th best RB duo in the NFL.

With that, we come to today's media selection. Thanks to Manna From Heaven for the suggestion for today's selection.

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:

-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags 
-No pictures that could potentially get someone fired or in serious trouble at their place of employment
-If you can't disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it's sarcasm
-This isn't a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door

With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don't forget to tip your waitress, & try the tiger meat.
