August 10, 1968

Stenerud Hero as Chiefs Nip Vikings, 13-10
 

MINNEAPOLIS, ST. PAUL UPI- Jan Stenerud's second field goal with 47 seconds to play handed Kansas City a 13-10 exhibition victory over the Minnesota Vikings Saturday night.
 

Stenerud's winning 15 yard kick climaxed a 38-yard drive by the Chiefs following an unusual clipping penalty against Vikings' kicker Bobby Walden after he punted from the Minnesota 14-yard line. The penalty gave Kansas City the ball on the Vikings' 38 and the Chiefs moved to the Minnesota 9 before Stenerud booted his fielder for the triumph.
 

Mike Garrett, the Chiefs' workhorse with 90 yards on 26 carries, gained 25 yards on six tries on Kansas City's drive to set up the kick.
 

The Vikings had tied the game, 10-10, midway through the fourth quarter on Fred Cox's 32-yard field goal.
