About Eric Strack

Eric Strack founded Minnesota Sports Fan LLC in 2017 and, one blog at a time, has built MinnesotaSportsFan.com into one of the top MN sports websites on the internet. Eric was born (1989), baptized and raised in Minnesota sports misery and has a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice (St. Cloud State University) that he's never used. He's a father of two, who plays slow-pitch softball because it makes him feel like he's still athletic.
