The infamous Nyberg’s Ace Gjallarhorn at Augustana University’s Midco Arena has been suspended on the northeast corner of the building since opening in 2024. Now, thanks to alumni Kevin Nyberg '79, Dr. Mark Berdahl ‘81 and Dean Versteeg ‘82, Viking fans can view the gjallarhorn up close and at eye level during NCAA Division I Augustana Men’s Hockey games. Take a photo with the Viking ship facade and tag @goaugie on Facebook, Instagram and X.
