Skol Vikings!

Recently, we got the opportunity to go to another Vikings game. The game was in KC, and we happen to know someone who has season tickets to the Chiefs games and couldn’t make it to this game. He offered to sell us his tickets at face value and threw in his parking pass for free. Ummm…. YES!

If you’ve ever purchased NFL tickets, you know that to be able to get a single game ticket with great seats at face value is impossible!

Gracie wanted to go and we would’ve taken her too, but there were only 4 tickets available, so it was just Mamma, Daddy and the boys again.

We left early Sunday morning, drove up for the game and drove home right after the game. It made for a very long day, but it was WONDERFUL!

Why, yes, that is Jared Allen (aka STUDMUFFIN!) almost close enough to touch! My sweet hubby walked down a few rows to get this close up for me. We didn’t even have our good camera with us, he really was this close!

Oh, look, there’s Jared flexing his muscles for me! :)

We got to see him get a sack!! Unfortunately, I didn’t get it on camera. Actually, I didn’t even get to see it “live”. I was standing in line for 15 minutes to get my youngest son a hot dog and saw it on the closed circuit tv…… he owes me for that one. That’s what I was waiting to see the WHOLE game!!!!!!!!!!!

A purple family in a sea of red!

Arrowhead is a great stadium. The fans were really nice and we really enjoyed ourselves. It was an absolutely PERFECT day. Clear, sunny skies with temps in the mid 70’s. Seriously, it was like heaven on earth!

The Viks lost the game and ended up 0-4. It’s no fun to watch your team lose, but we were just so excited to get to be there, that it really didn’t matter too much.

Last time we went to an NFL game, we thought it was a once in a lifetime kind of thing. To get the opportunity to go again, was like icing on the cake.

We just LOVE football and to experience it in person is just amazing. We are so thankful we were able to go! All 4 of us had a wonderful time.

One thing would’ve made it better….
