1974 Profile: Bart Buetow

Tackle
No. 60
Minnesota
"A No. 3 draft choice of the Minnesota Vikings in 1972, Bart came to the Giants on waivers in one of the final cutdowns, underwent knee surgery and sat out all of the 1972 campaign. Fully recovered last year, he spent half of the season on the inactive list, but was then activated and played in seven games, chiefly as a special teams man.
Bart was both a tight end and offensive tackle at Minnesota, winning three varsity letters with the Gophers. He also starred in hockey at Minnesota along with his twin brother Brad, and spent this past off-season keeping in shape by playing with Syracuse in the North American Hockey League.
Buetow was born in Moundsville, Minnesota, where he was a fine all-around high school athlete. When he's not breaking up power plays in hockey in the off-season, Bart's a bachelor and lives in St. Paul, Minnesota."
