Mascot Ousted After Viking Shakedown


Apparently, there is more to the story of the mysterious disappearance of Ragnar, the Viking's mascot as reported in a prior LetsGoDU article. Prior to this NFL season, Joe Juranitich who played Ragnar was paid $1,500 per game. During the football preseason this season, he was demanding an increase in pay to $20,000 per game! The Vikings balked and the two sides are at an impasse.

As of this writing, Denver Boone could not be reached to comment on his pay status.

I wish Boone would be official. Then he could be a IRS tax write-off. I defend Boone in that he never shook-me down for money, at least overtly. Very cool customer that Boone, almost like a Mafia king-pin.
