RIP Bill "Boom Boom" Brown
Bill Brown was one of my favorite Vikes growing up. Thoughts with his family.

The Viking Nation looses another great one. Not long and the Purple People Eater gang will all be gone.
You wear a crew cut long enough, it will eventually come back in style!
Bill Brown, 1979
One of my all time favorite Vikings. Rest In Peace Boom Boom.
Rich Gannon is calling the Charger game & he married Bills daughter once upon a time
A True Viking Legend
RIP
Met him at my gym in CA.
i was wearing one of my many Vikings shirts....he came up and said, "so you're a Vikings fan huh...."yeah...until the day I die"
"what's your name?"
"Ned"
"Hi Ned, Bill Brown....I used to play....."
Before he could finish...."Oh my God, no way!!" "I've gotta shake your hand"
(this was before cell phones / cameras and such)
Talked to him for a while...great guy.
He says, "I've gotta get going, but it was nice chatting....here"....and he tosses me a Keith Millard football camp T-Shirt.
I thanked him, and I wore that thing until it was thread-bare.
Rest In Peace Boom Boom
OLD school family from Hackensack ! 1 of my VERY ALL TIME FAV"S of co course there"s 2 many !!!!
I suppose @ 80 it should be too shocking, but I was surprised. Was not aware he wasn't well if that was the case.
Either way, RIP Boom Boom...
