Video: Chris Kluwe, Donovan McNabb Agree To Terms On Minnesota Vikings Jersey No. 5

Michael James July 30, 2011
It's official, although not exactly a surprise:  Donovan McNabb will wear No. 5 for the Minnesota Vikings.

Chris Kluwe and McNabb were kind enough to televise the signing of the "contract" containing the terms for which Kluwe would give up his number:

  • 5 mentions of [Kluwe's band] Tripping Icarus in non-consecutive press conferences.  
  • $5,000 donation to Kick for a Cure to benefit Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (a charity that Kluwe donates to every year)
  • An ice cream cone (optional).

    Watch the video of the negotiations here courtesy of the Vikings Entertainment Network.  Kudos to Kluwe and McNabb for being good sports and having fun with it.  And, of course, a charity donation is always a good thing.
