Big Announcement - Please Read - The Fan's Voice Matters
When we started VikeFans about 4.5 years ago, we had a plan to bring you the best inside coverage of the Minnesota Vikings possible.
As part of that plan, we started by covering training camp, then grew that to preseason game coverage, and it evolved to us bringing you the action at all the road regular season games this year.
Today, we were confirmed to bring you the same coverage we brought you in the regular season, at the Minnesota Vikings Divisional Playoff game on January 14th.
We will do pregame video coverage as much as 3 hours in advance of the game, we will report in-game and will conduct both post game locker room interviews, as well as bring you a post game report with Pete Bercich.
We would not get this shot without ALL of the veterans and new people who make this site go. We will bring you the inside look and tell you about the stories and emotion that the cameras can't capture.
The Vikings truly believe the fan voice matters, and we owe our thanks to YOU and the Minnesota Vikings for letting us continue to bring it to you.
Hammer-Down Vikings, Hammer-down!
Love it, Tom... and Mike... and everyone else who makes this "place" possible!
That's great news! I look forward to it.
I just didn't realize that was the original plan. I thought it was to move away from the mods at PT. ;)
Congrats Tom and Mike for getting recognized by the Vikings. Your dedication to this forum and team coverage isn't something most anyone would do. The latest team news and conversations are the reason I come here so often, and you guys bring it.
Great work, and thanks!

We have used 5 different members here to cover games over the last 2 years. We hope that is a unique aspect we can continue to share in the future with you.

It's a passion and I'd love the opportunity to put some equipment to good use. I could also use the practice, particularly with sports photography.

Great news, Tom!!!! This is awesome and I'm looking forward to the coverage during the playoffs! It's pretty great to be a Vikings fan right now, and this news makes it that much sweeter :D
Tom - I don't know how you find the time to do all of this - But THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Next time the Vikes come out to play the Raiders (before they leave) or the Niners - Im your man to help out here in the SF Bay!

I appreciate that Tom. If you can make it work, great. If you can't, I completely understand. You guys do a great job so I trust you'll figure out what works best. This place is a great resource for us fans and I'd like to lend support however I can. And I travel too! :)

I know you do travel. London was the one road game we passed on this season, but we didn't decline until 10 days before. It was just too tough to make the turnaround.The key to our site is the fans, and we use those that are capable whenever we can. I find it so much more fun on gamedays showing you guys how an NFL game comes together, than actually watching the game myself. It is fascinating.
