Minnesota sports fans got to experience quite the Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Minnesota Wild won. The Minnesota Timberwolves won. And the Minnesota Vikings<\/a> capped it off with a win on Sunday Night Football.<\/p>\n

The last time all three teams won on the same day? That would be Dec. 20, 2003, with the stat shared by Jon Krawczynski on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That day nearly 22 years ago, Randy Moss caught seven passes for 111 yards and two touchdowns from Daunte Culpepper.<\/p>\n

For the Timberwolves that day, Kevin Garnett went for 28 points and blocked seven shots.<\/p>\n

The Wild won that day thanks to two goals from Wes Walz.<\/p>\n

This time around, the Wild beat the Bruins 6-2 thanks to two goals from Kirill Kaprizov and a goal from Quinn Hughes in his Minnesota debut.<\/p>\n

The Timberwolves beat the Kings as both Julius Randle and Naz Reid put up points-rebounds double-doubles.<\/p>\n

And the Vikings beat the Cowboys<\/a> on Sunday night, officially eliminating Dallas from postseason contention.<\/p>\n

That’s a pretty great trifecta, really.<\/p>\n

The Wild have high hopes this season, particularly after pulling off the blockbuster deal for Hughes.<\/p>\n

The Timberwolves, led by Anthony Edwards, want to be one of the NBA’s best teams.<\/p>\n

The Vikings have been more of a disappointment, with J.J. McCarthy struggling more often than not, but they put it together on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Maybe this could be the start of a great stretch of sports in Minnesota.<\/p>\n
