I hear mixed things about Vikings tailgating. I love going to other stadiums, so here's my tips:

 

1. Most important, drink socially but do not get drunk. Don't get buzzed if you can help it. A few people are going to try and bait you and you just have to smile and disarm them.

 

2. Make sure people know you traveled to support your team. Most people can respect that.

 

3. Cheer for your team. No need to stand up on Defense every play, it's not helping the team and just annoying people around you. When its 3rd down, cheering loud should be fine, although you will still get some lip about it.

 

4. Never lower yourself to the drunk guys argument. Make sure you take the time to say hi to the people around you and be friendly so when that douche starts trying to call you out, you might get support from the other teams fans around you.

 

5. Tell people how much you like Adrian Petersen and that old Purple People Eater defense. And that you hate the Packers.

 

6. Win or lose, enjoy the experience.

1. Tell them that a true Minnesotan would know the names of at least 5,000 of their 10,000 lakes or so. Give them 5 minutes to name as many as they can.

 

2. Ask them who the idiot was that designed the dome. After all, doesn't everyone know it snows in Minnesota and how do they not know the roof probably shouldn't collapse when it does snow.

 

3. Remind them that Duante Culpepper's career essentially ended in Carolina one Sunday afternoon in 2005 when his LCL, MCL and ACL in one knee were shredded. The line, "I was there for that..." will always win you friends.

I did something like that in 2007 for the season opener, won a charity bid for a charter trip with a lot of the team sponsors though, not a fan trip - to St Louis. Great time, the charter flight was great, the flight attendants were serving free alcohol and snacks en route, there was a bus waiting for us at the ramp..have a blast and take some pictures to share!

    • Well Ron did have a 9 year playing career that cannot be understated. But he was an NFL coach/staff member in some capacity for about 13 years before taking our HC job, 6 as a DC. By comparision, DC has been an NFL coach/staff member in some capacity for 14 years prior to taking our HC job, only 1 as an OC.  So, in theory, Dave really shouldn't be super far behind the curve when compared to Ron. Although, I think Ron obviously had a much better grasp of what it takes to be a successful NFL player/Coach. 
    • I don’t know where the QB is going to come from but with a decent vet he won’t need three years.   I’d say we should try and trade for one but haven’t given it any real though to say if there is even one out there that fits that scenario. But I would rather give up big picks for a proven commodity that what we did with Bryce. 
    • I hope he can figure it out. He probably got the job a year or two before he was ready. I am not sure he is even fully in control of the defense. The rico thing, the QB room, not enough in game adjustments; like the buffalo game. Somebody should have tried something different to stop that toss sweep. He was already standing in the open grave when he took this job from dave tepper. The question is whether dave is going to give him enough rope to get out of the grave hole or is he going to hit him over the head with the shovel and bury him.
