Over his 17 year Vikings career, Harper has created notable Vikings traditions such as the Skol Chant and Gjallarhorn; built brand extensions such as VEN and Viktor the Viking; and innovated productions such as the can’t-miss in-stadium pregame intro sequence and the league’s only TV-Radio preseason simulcast.
