The Minnesota Vikings have given their weather-worn Norseman a facelift. The team's longtime logo has been enhanced "to give it a more natural and defined look," the Vikings announced Thursday on their official site. The changes -- revealed first to season ticket holders -- stress a "sharper, bolder" look, but the tweaks are slight. Per the team:The shape of the horns have been altered and the shading updated, the base of the Norseman's horns now resembles those on Minnesota's helmets, the Norseman's mustache and face now feature thicker lines, Gold tones are now "brighter and less brassy." Finally, this seafaring gentleman's majestic braid has been shortened, triggering a "reduced logo height" (for those of you monitoring the pulse of league-wide logo height).
