Ole Hausgrud was added to the Vikings ownership because of an agreement he had with the NFL since the 1920s when he sold his Duluth Eskimos team back to the league.

Coincidentally or not Ole Haugsrud's high school, Central High School in Superior WI teams were also called the Vikings and their school colors were purple and white.
