Minnesota Vikings fans love Alan Page. The former member of the Purple People Eaters had one heck of a career and went on to become one of the most important people in the state of Minnesota. The folks over at NFL Network have recognized Page’s contributions to both the game of football and society and have decided to air a special on the NFL legend as part of their series titled “A Football Life”.
Alan Page: A Football Life will air October 16, 2015 at 9pm EST. It will tell the story of his rise from a young man working in Canton, Ohio to becoming enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame through his contributions to the state of Minnesota as part of the Minnesota State Supreme Court.
