Tom Clancy Almost Owned The Minnesota Vikings In 1998

Clancy's dream of owning the Vikings nearly came true in 1998. "This has been a dream of mine for a long time," Clancy said after agreeing to pay a then-NFL record $200 Million. The deal collapsed amid concerns he'd relocate the team, something Clancy denied. "I'm not moving Vikings to Texas. Name's not Irsay, it's Clancy." The franchise was then sold to Red McCombs.
