/r/MinnesotaVikings
Back in the Middle Ages, rampaging bands of Vikings were roaming Europe and at the end of each battle, Viking warriors would remove the head of the vanquished and from his skull--spelled skoll--as a sign of respect for the fallen opponent. It was only then, Viking warriors believed, could an opponent who had fought valiantly be allowed into Valhalla.Well-documented Viking folklore states that gnomes, such as depicted by this product, were the gatekeepers of Valhalla. This historically accurate garden variety gnome will keep you safe from such modern day predators such as lions, bears, and overweight, packing enthusiasts (watch you kids around these ones). Five stars.

Behold… Gnome Montana!
As an avid gardener, my wife is perpetually on the lookout for her next ornament, trinket, or accent piece for the backyard. Me, on the other hand? I have a hard time keeping fake plants alive… just about one of the only things I HAVE cultivated (sorry, bad pun), is love of 49er football. And that’s where this little guy comes in!My bride asked if I’d like anything in the garden to put a little of my personality into it, so I showed up with this delightful chap. In what was initially a bit of a tongue-in-cheek purchase, I actually really liked it. I ended up communicating that to my wife, at which point she asked if I’d rather house him in the Man Cave; which means that either:a) She was relieved that she wouldn’t have to place him in our garden, and I gave her an easy out.b) She’s just an awesome spouse, and a selfless one at that.I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt, but like the Leg Lamp in Christmas Story, I’m sure it’ll be a family mystery for the ages. In any case, this item looks exactly like its picture here on the product page. The statue is vibrant, well painted, and as of the 2017 NFL offseason, could probably start at QB for the Niners without the team faring much worse in the loss column. In the end, what you see is what you get with this product; so if you’re after a quirky decoration and love the Red & Gold, I think you’ll really enjoy this purchase!Feel free to leave me a comment or question, I’m happy to add anything else you’d like to know about the product. Thanks for taking the time to read my review, hopefully this information was useful!

Gnome says ' GO HAWKS!!"
OHHH Hes so cute!! He makes me smile. I love my little Seahawk Gnome. I havehim sitting in my window. The game starts in about 45 mins.Before he arrived, I thought I might put it outside in the yard,. He's made of resin soother than freezing, should handle the weather without a problem. It's really not very big--only about a foot tall-- and would get lost among the plants. He'd work really well inplanter if I had one outside I wanted to put him in. So... my plans changed.Inside the window is fine. I turn him toward the street or toward me, inside.Thinking positively. He is going to be a "good luck" charm for the Seahawk games.Maybe even will help us get healthy and stay that way. GO HAWKS!!

It’s ok I guess
Smaller than I thought it would be. But still it’s unique. Probably would look best on a shelf. Also, feels like it’s made with rubber.

Magical Wish Granting Gnome!
When my Vikings gnome finally arrived I removed it from the packaging and mounted it atop my mantlepiece. It went right between a miniature wax replica of the Lombardi Trophy and an inkjet printout of a picture I took of Randy Moss shopping at Costco. I then spent the rest of the morning and most of the afternoon proudly gazing upon my new prize from the couch. As evening finally settled in I turned to the kitchen to get into some Chef Boyardee cheese ravioli (not the beef, gross).When suddenly I heard something from back in the living room."Uh...hey...hey there buddy!" I turned with a start, and rushed in. There, atop my fireplace sat my gnome with a smug little look on his face and a corncob pipe in his mouth. The football was nowhere to be seen."Ummm, hey there little gnome." I said, "there's no smoking in here.""Eat it!" replied the gnome. "I mean uh...Skol! or, whatever."I stood there slack jawed, not sure how to react."Well buddy, you paid your $3.24 with Prime shipping included, so now I am here to grant you 3 switches!" declared the gnome."Switches?""Uh, I mean wishes...ya, wishes!""Hmmm" I replied, "I get three whole wishes? That sounds awesome! Right now? Can I ask for them right now?" I exclaimed."Sure buddy, hurry it up...I got uh, gnome stuff to do.""Ok, ok....hmmm, I guess I want the Minnesota Vikings to win the Super Bowl!"The then gnome nodded slowly and puffed on his pipe in three quick bursts. "Ok, it shall be done...buddy" replied the gnome."REALLY?! I asked. I can't believe it, this is awesome!""No, you dumb****!" replied the gnome "gnomes don't grant wishes! and even if they did there are limits! The Vikings shall go 5-11!" Then he kicked my wax trophy off the mantle and set my Randy Moss picture on fire with his pipe. Finally he scurried up the chimney cackling like an a******.Never saw or heard from him again.PROS: Magical talking gnomeCONS: I really liked that picture and my living room smells like whatever gnomes smoke (I think it's cat s***).4 out of 5 stars

Needed this little guy
My husband has a Cleveland Browns gnome sitting in our “sports” room, for about a year now. He looks so lonely that I had to get him some company and since I’ve been a Green Bay Packer fan since 1966 when my mother that loved the Packers taught me about football, I just thought the Browns gnome would love the Packers gnome to keep him company.
