Mike formerly from Florida Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 September 16, 1982 -- BILLS COME BACK TO BEAT VIKINGS In a special Thursday night match-up on ABC the Bills overcame a 19-0 first half deficit to beat the Vikings 32-22 at Rich Stadium. It was the team's first victory over Minnesota. If I remember correctly, we only beat Minny by one point. I think the score was 23-22. Can anybody confirm this? ---------------------- Important weekend in Bills lore. Go Bills! Squish Dem Fish! 775220[/snapback] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
