Former Minnesota Vikings great Randy Moss’ Hall of Fame speech was an emotional one. He often mentioned his hometown of Rand, West Virginia, and the spirit of unity and togetherness. At one point, he held back tears, saying:
“Believe me when I tell you all, where I come from, I knew I had to carry you all. From the bottom of my heart, I know a lot of people are out there struggling... I cannot forget my small, unincorporated hometown, Rand, West Virginia... Where nobody even checked on us. Did not care what was going on. We stuck together.
