Kwesi Adofo-Mensah barely had a chance to kick his feet up when he received an impassioned plea from a fan.
According to the Minnesota Vikings general manager, a “Once before I die” t-shirt had been mailed to him as a clear Super Bowl plea for the championship-starved franchise.
“The first thing I noticed when I got here, and I’ll be honest, I’ve lived on the coast most of my life,” Adofo-Mensah said, during an appearance on Pro Football Talk. “So I didn’t really know, but they love football. First and foremost, they love ball here. This thing is impacted on you the second you get here. I got a t-shirt. I think somebody mailed me one, “Once before I die.” So that message is pretty clear.”
