Viking's fans turn to YouTube in hopes of securing a new stadium deal [video]

Posted on November 9, 2011

For those who don't know, the Minnesota Vikings are trying to get a new stadium as their lease at the aging Metrodome is almost up. With a poor showing the last 2 seasons and trying to move out of the downtown Minneapolis area, the Vikings are having a hard time securing funding from the state.

The fans have taken to YouTube to create promo spots, like the one shown above, in attempts to help the Vikings get solid deals on the table.

While Vikings fans may abhor the idea of the Vikes leaving Minnesota, becoming a Packers fan may prove to be benefitial for most. Supporting a community-based, successful and Championed team is something that most Vikes fans have never had the opportunity to do.

If the Vikings move to, well anywhere, I'll be the first to welcome them with open arms to the Green & Gold Dynasty!

GO PACK GO!
