Hall of Fame head coach Bud Grant promotes adorable garage sale on Twitter
It's the story that has everything.
Twitter! An old man! An old man selling old man treasures via Twitter!
Hall of Fame Minnesota Vikings head coach Bud Grant, 88, recently started a Twitter account in an effort to promote his garage sale full of slightly-better-than-usual garage-sale items. This guy's an innovator on AND off the field.

He's selling a lot of NFL memorabilia to what looks like a sprightly population of locals. Spend your lunch hour perusing the items on the table or just stop by for some much-needed company.
"How much for those deer and moose antlers, Bud?"
"Those are strictly garage decoration."
"I'll give you ten ha'pennies for the whole lot."
"Please leave."
Ol' Bud even tweets like an old guy.
Cut-off sentences!

At times you lose your faith in humanity. And then an old guy takes to Twitter to hawk his wares and all seems right with the world. So we'll leave you with this adorable old guy, Bud Grant, talking to an even older guy about the failures of the Taft administration, most likely.
