I tried to break America’s record sports curse

Spoiler... Minnesota hold the current record

If you look at the big 4 men’s sports… the NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL, and calculate the number of seasons a fanbase has gone through without winning a major championship…

There’s one state that hasn’t won a championship (actually hasn’t even participated in a finals/championship) in 127 seasons.

127 SEASONS without winning it all.

Any guesses who it is?

It’s Minnesota.

Home of the MN Vikings (0 Superbowls), the MN Timberwolves (0 Finals as the Lakers moved out of Minnesota to a city without lakes), the MN Wild (0 Stanley Cups as the North Stars moved to the furthest state in the South) and the MN Twins (who were the last Minnesota sports team to win anything, a World Series in 1991).

If you take skill out of the equation and calculate at random all 4 teams missing the championship… there’s a 1 in 6,416 chance of this happening 127 times in a row.

That’s a 0.0015% chance.

I’m a Minnesota sports fan (go Wild) so I wanted to get to the bottom of this. 

So… I hired a psychic. Her name is Ruth Lordan and funny enough she’s already had some sports experience. She once gave the coach of the Vikings a crystal globe and they won 6 games in a row.

Her take surprised me. She claimed that Minnesota hasn’t won a major championship because the venues that these capitalist entities sit on are on stolen native land. Or in other words, the land is not blessed. So Idid what any fan would do and tried to break the curse, by contacting the team owners to arrange a Native American blessing.

Anyway I made a video all about this. It’s called Americas record sports curse. And maybe this is the year it finally ends (seriously, go Wild).
