The only "human" mascot in professional sports, Ragnar has been entertaining Vikings fans since 1994. With his long scraggly beard and traditional Viking garb, Ragnar, who is played by Joseph Juranitch, has become a symbol for Minnesota's NFL team. Before every game, Ragnar rides atop his trademark motorcycle or snowmobile.
