Outdoor NFL football in Minnesota…oh how we’ve missed you!
I’m anxiously anticipating Monday, December 20th – the night in which outdoor NFL football returns to Minnesota for the first time since 1981. I was only 10 years old when ‘The Purple People Eaters’ packed up and moved downtown Minneapolis to the indoor climate-controlled comforts of the H.H.H Metrodome, but I had already experienced some of my fondest childhood memories at the infamous Metropolitan Stadium. Bundled up in a snowmobile suit and toting around a thermos of hot chocolate, even at a young age I knew that I’d be a loyal Vikings fan forever. So, welcome back outdoor football! We’re all very excited to make your acquaintance again next Monday at TCF Stadium. Hopefully this will be a glimpse of what’s to come in the near future for our beloved Norsemen…football the way it’s meant to be played!
Very cool photos! I look forward to seeing how the rest of your site shapes up. Happy Wednesday!
