Minnesota sports fans have endured a challenging journey. From the departure of the Lakers in 1960, the iconic "Hail Mary" to the disastrous trade that remains one of the worst in professional sports history, and the loss of the beloved North Stars, fans have experienced a series of heart-wrenching moments. The heartbreaks have persisted across generations, leaving a lasting impact on the state's sports enthusiasts.
Determined not to give up, Minnesota's baseball, basketball, football, and hockey fans continue to support their teams year after year, season after season.
Twin Cities filmmaker Dan Whenesota sought the help of passionate fans in the Land of 10,000 Lakes to compile a list of the most devastating moments in Minnesota sports history.

"History of Heartbreak" is more than just a collection of unforgettable moments; it is a celebration of the Vikings, Twins, Wild, Timberwolves, Gophers, and other beloved teams. It serves as a reminder that those who have endured the worst learn to cherish the best.
Join Minnesota fans across the state and around the country as they remember the moments that broke their hearts and fueled their passion for sports. Inside, you will find accounts of 100 heartbreaking moments in Minnesota sports history, accompanied by stunning full-color sports photography. The book also features a foreword by Dan Barreiro of KFAN Radio, adding an insightful perspective to the journey of Minnesota sports fans.
Through the tears and the triumphs, Minnesota sports fans remain unwavering in their support for their teams. Their dedication and loyalty are a testament to the enduring spirit of sports and the power of fandom. "History of Heartbreak" is a tribute to that spirit and a reminder that no matter what challenges may lie ahead, Minnesota's sports fans will always stand by their teams, ready to embrace the next chapter of their beloved sports.
