Just Amazing

I bought five $100 seats in the rafters of US Bank Stadium for the Vikings vs Colts game on Saturday. The boys hadn't seen an NFL game live before and we got lucky with the Viking in town during our annual December visit. The Vikings were down 33-0 at half time and got booed off the field by a stadium of disappointed fans. Half of our row of 20 some seats left before the third quarter and I was feeling like I over paid for tickets by about $99.

The third quarter started slowly but the Vikings started scoring and it didn't stop until the last seconds of overtime with a field goal to give the home team a 39-36 win and the NFC North title. It was bedlam in the building as we witnessed the largest comeback in NFL history and a very memorable first game for Dylan and Sam, a first Vikings game in that stadium for Finn and just a fun day for Nicole and I.

It turns those tickets were priceless.
