Inside US Bank Stadium

A friend of mine sent this photo to me, it was his last day working at the stadium. At first I thought it was an empty stadium, however, as I was just about to post this, I noticed there is one person in the photo. Do you see them now?

Sufin' USA

These two guys on top of the van, were up on the roof of the vehicle for nearly two hours while I was tailgating for the Vikings versus Cowboys football game. Whomever you two are, thank you for the photo opportunity. Go Vikes!

Pregame Tailgate

Before each Vikings games, as I'm sure happens in every city hosting a football game, there are several designated tailgate lots. In these lots they allow everyone to grill, drink beverages and party before the game starts. The designated lots also provide port-a-potties and a barrel to dump your hot coals into. There is an extra cost to park in these lots, $55 dollars to be exact. Quite steep if you ask me, but a couple blocks away, in lots that do not allow tailgating, you'll pay $20-25 for parking.

Return Of Randy Moss

My wife had surprised me over the summer by purchasing tickets for the Minnesota Vikings versus Dallas Cowboys football game. Little did we know we would be there for Randy Moss's return in a Vikings uniform. There was a lot of excitement for Moss today. Lots of number 84 jerseys and the crowd even chanted his name during the TV timeout at the start of the game. The Vikings were the victor by a score of 24-21.

Painted Purple

If you've visited the Metrodome in the past, or at least prior to the Minnesota Twins leaving the stadium, you may recall the support beams were painted red. Now that the stadium is solely the Vikings stadium, the dome has had a makeover. The beams, railings, doors, some of the walls are now Vikings purple in color. There has been quite a bit of changes made, which makes me wonder why the need for a new stadium now?

Favre On The Loose

I made it to the Minnesota Vikings versus the Detroit Lions game on Sunday with my wifey. The Vikings was by a score of 24-10. Something I didn't expect to happen was seeing Brent Favre up here in the stands with me. I'm not sure how he found the time to watch the game from the fans perspective, but as you can see, I have him right there in the photo.
