Kids had such a blast at the game, on the way out they asked if we could fly to Minnesota for a home game.
Hell, I've been a Vikes fan since the early seventies and STILL haven't made the pilgrimage.

Christ, I'm a public school teacher. I had to sell a kidney to get THESE seats in LA!

My bad. I misread the title. Thought it read.

"Dad came we go to real game now"

Sorry functioning on 4 hrs sleep today.
Actually if you want entertainment there was plenty of scoring.
I'm kinda old school. I prefer to be less entertained.

Ha! Spoiled kids nowadays....

My two year old was sitting with me the other day as I read some viking news (and yes, he can identify the Viking logo). He said "Go Vikings game." I laughed asked if he wanted to go to a Vikings game, and he said yes. So likely I will be making the trek one of these years.

Ruin' em young. That's my motto.
I've suffered my entire life no way you're getting off easy.

Yes, and then in January or Feb, I wonder why I did this to my kids. I have some beautiful drawings my daughter did for me after the Walsh hook.

I thought this thread was going to be about all our short week away games.

It snows the night before up north we're from central Illinois 7 hours later we roll into Minny ( kids crazy ) some slush on some lanes mostly dry i'm rollin 70 suddenly in sight I point out Mandy there's our Metrodome she goes wild I mean screamin wild "dad its our Vikings home" suddenly I notice the flashing lights I pull over ordered put hands on car slammed/ cuffed " you were driving to fast for conditions and we followed you for 2 miles before you pulled over. Explained I was distracted by kid screamin it's HOME dad over & over first Vikings game she'd been to!!! She had her helga hat/braids on ....they even told her your dad's going to jail for evading...finally they let us go on we went to the game!! We Lost !!!
