I stabbed a man with a trident.
Western pioneers owned guns.
Advantage: 49er.
You should also mention that Thor is the star of his own comic book, an honor no 49er has ever earned and that Vikings really liked the raping and pillaging. Especially the rape. Entire Scandanavian villages were populated solely through Viking-rape.
Also, Viking funerals (body put to sea on a flaming longboat) are much cooler than 49er funerals (devoured by scavengers at the bottom of a ravine).
But vikings believed in a Norse heave where the two principle actions were boozing and fighting for all eternity = not afraid to die because how awesome is that
advantage: viking
*Norse heaven
Vikings, easy.
Anyone who enters the Octagon to the Immigrant Song is a winner.
Plus, the Vikings can stop the run. The 49ers couldn't stop anyone from violating them, let alone the run.
Seeing someone that looks like Blue from Old School fight someone looks like that big German from Beerfest would be oddly entertaining. The Viking knows no fear. Because they're on shrooms. Hell and Yes.

Gold is over a thousand dollars an ounce right now. I' m sure he could by enough young women and drumsticks to satiate the viking (and then pick-axe him in the head when he was busy raping)
49er No doubt

if they were nicknamed the 69ers they would get my vote.
1. What, no one here watched Deadwood? The guy with the gold wins. Always.
2. As already pointed out, guns > axes. Sorry.
3. If he didn't want to do it himself, the 49er simply would hire the Pinkertons to quickly and efficiently dispose of the fur wearing, face-painting, ass-fucked Norwegian pussies.
4. Finally, I submit for your consideration the Best Fight Scene Ever on TV
Notice how my man did not need an axe or any fucking weapon to totally fuck up the Captain?
I rest my case.
This post makes me want to drink mead. Anyone want to go get a mead with me?
I voted for Leeroy Jenkins.
@ futuremrs
i got to make mead for a class in college, shit tastes like absolute piss...so i'll pass
"Anyone who enters the Octagon to the Immigrant Song is a winner."
Fuck and yes.
According to my Louis L'Amour and Zane Grey books, pistols weren't used out west until the 1860s. Advantage: Vikings.
Check out Wikipedia, though, Bambi:
Mulled mead is a popular winter holiday drink, where mead is flavored with spices (and sometimes various fruits) and warmed, traditionally by having a hot poker plunged into it.
Sounds both tasty and disturbingly erotic. Sign me up.
Ragnarok > Pyrite
@ futuremrs
You had me at "hot poker"... I'm in
When I try to vote, the stupid computer tells me, "Cannot process request". What the hell? It allows me to view results though.
Experienced in forcible entry
So, the viking is basically just Jerramy Stevens with girly braids?
@ futuremrs.
no one mentioned hot pokers thrusting inwards...
@ smurphette
and a viking will make the catch over the middle to pick up the crucial first down against steely mcbeam
The 49er has no family, no love of anything. He forgets where he came from. He knows only the search for "the color." He bears only a rifle, some horribly communicable diseases, and a monstrous, violent fear of foreigners.
BOOM. Buckshot to the face. 49er wins.
Vikings, rape, forcible entry, Jeremy Stevens, hot pokers and still no mention of Fred Smoot and the Vikings cruise?
Even Hagar the Horrible could beat down some pansy prospector. Vikings.
Odin tied with Asmodeus for highest ranking in Dungeons and Dragons "Deities and Demigods" handbook
Congrats on undoing all the work to dispell the "nerds in parent's basement" stereotype
@seamus "the color"? I thought we were doing the 49ers, not the Pats.
consarnit im not gonna git hornswoggled in this one.
Even assuming the '49er has a rifle, it's going to be a muzzle-loading musket, and there's no way he could kill a bloodthirsty armored viking in a single shot.
When the '49er stops to spend 90 seconds reloading, even an injured norseman will be able to cleave head from shoulders. Viking all the way.
awww gravy
awww peaches and cinnamon
He said, "the sheriff is near."
A lot of real 49ers were rich guys from the East. Wussies, all of them.
wow drew, that was the nerdiest AD&D reference this side of Greyhawk. i'm impressed.
I will give props to Drew for the old school SNL reference in the title.
And the viking totally kills the prospecter. Deadwood was great sure, but they threw one dude off a mountain. Fuckers couldn't even fly.
@Tracer Bullet
Joe Montana had his own comic strip.
Also, purple belongs to the black man now, and I don't think those long boats were coming from Namibia.
Finally, Vikings couldn't take North America because of injuns, injuns got wiped out by the white man's dirty blankets and VD, 49er's had VD...
Hey futuremrs, yeah we can get that mead, but then you gotta put out.
