The "Purple People Eaters" or The "Purple Gang" Marshall, Larson, Ellen and Page.

Minnesota Viking Middle Linebacker Lonnie Warwick passed away on October 28, 2024. Lonnie played during the era of Butkus, Nitschke, and Lucci. Drafted by the Vikings in 1965, he played with the Vikings through 1972. He finished his career with the Atlanta Falcons and his first head coach Norm Van Brocklin in 1973 and 1974. He was one rough and tough man. Injuries slowed Lonnie in 1972 opening up the Middle Linebacker position to 1972 Vikings 1st round draft choice Jeff Siemon. RIP Lonnie. A Viking forever!
