Those were the famous words Randy Moss told the press when asked how he was going to pay his fine after his arrest for pushing a traffic cop with his Lexus in downtown Minneapolis. Since 2000, our Minnesota Vikings players have been arrested more than the rest of the teams in the NFL. Probably not the first place finish they were hoping for. Below are just a few examples of Viking player arrests. Nab all the bonuses in this combo for some serious straight-up points. Minneapolis, MN N 44°58.579 W 093°16.254 Arby’s Restaurant in the Northstar Center > 110 South 7th Street At the intersection of 6th and Marquette is where Randy Moss pushed a traffic cop with his Lexus.
