Each NFL team provides different entertainment for their respective fans during halftime at games. One of the most common halftime shows is a football game between minor football teams in their area and mascots, and Viktor the Viking was a big part of one of these games.
The Minnesota Vikings played the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football this past week, and the Vikings decided to do some fan service by bringing out Blue, the Colts’ mascot, to play in a game of mascots against kids.
While the fan service may have been great, there was an even more insane play that had fans in love with a throw from Viktor while praising Blue simultaneously. Just by looking at the play, we can see why!
In the original X post from user Leighton Glodek, he claims he “can’t stop thinking about this throw from Viktor the Viking…” while explaining the clip in which he perfectly executed an insane Mahomes-level throw.

While mentioning that the pass was perfectly placed, he credited the Colts mascot with the great catch, and fans agreed with Glodek. “Viktors always been QB1…,” went one fan while adding a clip to prove his NFL prowess further.

Viktor even took to the comment section to claim that he and Blue had been practicing all year to go 1-0 against the kids on Sunday. “This is what we practice all year for,” claimed the Vikings “NFL all-star” mascot.

One NFL fan even suggested that JJ McCarthy may be out of a job next season if Viktor keeps up these insane clips. “Viktor might win the starting job over JJ in the future,” they claimed, and it would be hilarious to see.
While the Vikings may be one of the best teams in the NFL right now, there’s no doubt that it’s always great to have an extra QB you can turn to if an injury comes up, and the team might have one in the house already!
