Get the Doggy mission mug.A school located in Overland Park KS in the shawnee mission school district, they're the Vikings even though there are no people from Minnesota in that bitch. They say that the school itself is great but really its full of stoner, wanna be stoners and is the teenage pregnancy capital of the Midwest. The sports teams are abysmal and any football team made up of just punters could beat their football team. And they stole their logo straight from the NFL franchise Minnesota Vikings. And the only thing they got going for them is that Paul Rudd went their for highschool
