Viking Games jersey
Plural: Viking Games Dela-wares
The Viking Games developed a few years ago from a merger of a number of other winter sports competitions. Their standard jersey reflects this merger, demonstrating the triple-triangle valknut insignia of the Pan-Scandinavian Games (also sometimes known as the Scan-Pandinavian Games), merged with the inverted black triangle from the Norway Nineteen (a series of nineteen different excruciating arctic challenges), laid atop the red field of the Erik the Redback quadrathlon.
Sponsored by Dela Corp., a Swedish marketing firm, the unified Viking Games represent a near-lethal collection of competitions designed to test the speed, endurance, and frostbite tolerance of a few hundred mostly crazed descendants of once-fierce Norsemen.
It's not a particularly popular set of games. That's probably why the remainder shirts went to the Wok of Stars.
