John Randle Hall of Fame
By Vikings Fan (02/15/2010 10:19 AM)
One of the highlights of the NFL post season for me was watching John Randle be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. As a Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle John Randle was a superb player and feared by quarterbacks across the league. In 14 seasons, Randle recorded 114 sacks with the Minnesota Vikings and ranks third in team history and first for a defensive tackle.
John Randle started six straight Pro Bowls for the NFC while with the Vikings team and although he finished his NFL career with the Seattle Seahawks, he will forever be a Minnesota Viking. Congrats John Randle! You deserve the Pro Football Hall of Fame honor.
New Orleans Saints are Super Bowl Champs; Largely Thanks to Vikings Nemesis Tracy Porter
By Vikings Fan (02/08/2010 11:20 AM)
If you were a Vikings fan watching the Super Bowl last night, you may have felt a little déjà vu. New Orleans Saints defensive back Tracy Porter intercepted Colts quarterback Payton Manning in dramatic fashion that changed game momentum, much like he intercepted Brett Favre for the NFC Championship game.
It wasn't Tracy Porter that won the game for the Saints, though. Most would say it was quarterback Drew Brees and the New Orleans flawless offense that upset the Indianapolis Colts 31-17. Drew Brees was the star of the game and earned the Super Bowl MVP Award and with 32 completed passes tied a Super Bowl record.
"We just believed in ourselves and we knew that we had an entire city and maybe an entire country behind us," Drew Brees said.
Congratulations to Drew Brees and the Super Bowl Champions New Orleans Saints, but you better watch out because next year it will be the Super Bowl Champions Minnesota Vikings shining in the spotlight.
Vikings Adrian Peterson, Jared Allen, Steve Hutchinson and Heath Farwell were all part of last nights Pro Bowl game. While each player enjoyed the honor of playing in the Pro Bowl, they couldn't help feeling bittersweet imagining what could have / should have been. Jared Allen had a big tackle for a four yard loss, but still seemed a little down and was quoted as saying, "yeah, we'd like to be playing next week."
Vikings fans would like to see their purple team playing next week as well because it doesn't get any bigger than the Super Bowl . . . maybe next year.
Vikings Super Bowl Dreams Over
By Vikings Tickets (01/25/2010 11:00 AM)
It seems as quickly as the hope for a Vikings Super Bowl appearance started, it ended. The Minnesota Vikings lost to the New Orleans Saints 28-31 in OT last night and it was heart breaking.
The biggest factor in the Vikings' overtime loss to the Saints was Minnesota's five turnovers. FIVE! You just can't turn the ball over that many times and come out on top. Brett Favre led the offense the best he could, but took a lot of hits and ended up throwing an interception to end regulation time. Overtime wasn't much better as the Saints won the coin toss and marched down the field for the winning field goal.
and Super Bowl travel packages from a local Minnesota charter company, but now we are all "licking our wounds" and trying to get excited about a Saints Colts Super Bowl. We do still have great Super Bowl tickets to offer you, but it's not quite the same. Maybe next year...

Vikings Cowboys Ticket Worth Every Cent
By Vikings Tickets (01/18/2010 11:15 AM)
If you bought a Vikings Cowboys ticket, you got your money's worth! The Minnesota Vikings beat the Dallas Cowboys 34-3 in front of a very loud Metrodome crowd. The Vikings appreciated the fan support and the home field advantage and put on a great show. Brett Favre threw four Vikings TD passes, three of those to Vikings receiver Sidney Rice. Ray Edwards, Jared Allen and the entire Vikings defense effectively shut down the Cowboys offense, sacking Tony Romo a season-high 6 times.
Next up for the Minnesota Vikings is a trip to play the No. 1 NFC seed New Orleans Saints at the Superdome. Go Vikes!

Vikings Send Powerful Message to Giants
By Vikings Fan (01/04/2010 02:52 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings sent a powerful message to the New York Giants, the NFC, the NFL and any fans that may have doubted their offensive prowess. "We can win games and we can win big." The Vikings bowled over the Giants 44-7 at Mall of America Field yesterday and finished a perfect 8-0 in the Metrodome.
The Vikings victory and an ensuing Philadelphia Eagles loss, gave the Minnesota Vikings the No. 2 seed in the NFC with such benefits as home field advantage and a first round bye.

Up Next: On the Road for a Vikings Bears Game
By Minnesota Vikings Fan (12/22/2009 12:39 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings travel to Soldier Field Chicago to take on NFC North rival Chicago Bears on Monday night. Let's hope the Vikings can come away with a much needed road victory and a much needed national TV audience victory. This Vikings fan is sick of listening to "How can the Vikings be 11-3" from my out of state friends. Plus, a Vikings win will put us one step closer to a first round bye.
It's the second year in a row that the Minnesota Vikings are the NFC North Champions. It feels good to be a Vikings fan with Back to Back Championships to brag about.
Go Vikes! Mission Miami!
Vikings Panthers Game Ugly
By Vikings Tickets (12/21/2009 12:27 PM)
There was nothing pretty about the Vikings Panthers game on Sunday night. In fact, the game was quite ugly if you are a Vikings fan. The Carolina Panthers dominated the Minnesota Vikings and won 26-7.
The Minnesota Vikings failed to execute on many levels including third down conversions as they completed only 1 of 10 plus Adrian Peterson rushed for only 35 yards on 12 carries. The defense wasn't any better allowing 20 points and 211 yards in the fourth quarter alone.
"We're embarrassed and disappointed and all the other negative words," Vikings linebacker Ben Leber said.
"Nobody likes losing," defensive tackle Kevin Williams said. "We took one on the chin but we have to bounce back."

Vikings Bengals Game = Vikings Dominance and NFL Playoff Spot
By Vikings Tickets (12/14/2009 04:15 PM)
If you had a Minnesota Vikings Ticket to the Vikings Bengals game then you got your moneys worth as the Vikings dominated the Cincinnati Bengals 30-10. The Vikings victory officially clinches an NFL Playoff spot for the Minnesota Vikings team.
The Vikings defense looked spectacular at the Metrodome on Sunday. It was great to have the now healthy Antoine Winfield back in the lineup as the Vikings defense held the Cincinnati Bengals to a mere 210 total net yards and forced the Bengals to go three and out on four different occasions. The Minnesota Vikings offense put up numbers of their own with Adrian Peterson rushing for 97 yards, catching three passes and scoring two touchdowns.
The Vikings travel to Charlotte, North Carolina to play the Carolina Panthers this Sunday evening. Let's hope the Vikings Panthers game proves the Vikings can win on the road, too!

Vikings Cardinals Game Lessons Essential for Vikings Playoff Success
By Vikings Fan (12/07/2009 11:40 AM)
I didn't get to travel to Phoenix to see the Minnesota Vikings play the Arizona Cardinals, but I saw plenty from my sofa that had me thinking that I was glad the Vikings Cardinals game was not a playoff game. The Minnesota Vikings lost 17-30 in front of a very loud crowd and will need to put the Vikings Cardinals game lessons into action the rest of the season.
For example, the Vikings special teams still need improvement on kick/punt coverage. The Vikings offensive line has got to find a way to create a hole for Adrian Peterson and to adjust to changing defenses. The Vikings defense has to find a way to put pressure on quarterbacks who throw quick passes and stay deep in the pocket. I am hoping Leslie Frazier will review what it means to cover a receiver one on one this week at practice.
If the Vikings can fix the little weaknesses that exist on this otherwise stellar team, the NFL playoffs will be a fun experience for Viking Nation.

Vikings Bears Game a Gunslinger Triumph
By Vikings Fan (11/30/2009 03:06 PM)
The Vikings Bears game gave Vikings fans plenty to cheer about yesterday afternoon. Brett Favre showed why he is called The Gunslinger completing 32 of 48 passes for 392 yards and three touchdowns. The Vikings rolled over the Chicago Bears 36-10. It was an all-star cast event as Percy Harvin, Bernard Berrian, Chester Taylor and Sidney Rice had six catches each and Vishante Shiancoe had five. The Vikings defense proved too tough for Jay Cutler and the Chicago Bears to handle.
Every game counts as the Vikings try to secure a spot in the playoffs. The Vikings travel to Phoenix to take on the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Stay Tuned because this Vikings team is full of surprises.

MVP Brett Favre Throws 4 Touchdowns as Vikings grounded the Seattle Seahawks
By Vikings Football Fan (11/23/2009 01:29 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings offense looked solid on Sunday as quarterback Brett Favre threw 4 touch down passes that propelled the Minnesota Vikings past the Seattle Seahawks 35-9. Brett Favre completed 22 of 25 passes for 213 yards, giving Vikings fans plenty of reason to chant MVP during the game. Brett Favre spread the touchdown glory to several Vikings receivers including one touchdown each by Percy Harvin, Visanthe Shiancoe, Bernard Berrian and Sidney Rice proving that the Minnesota Vikings have a full arsenal of weapons.
The Vikings defense was as stingy as ever, too, giving up a total of 4 yards rushing. It seemed to me that Vikings fans have plenty to get excited about and if you didn't buy a Vikings ticket for the Seahawks game you really missed out. Next up for the Minnesota Vikings: The Chicago Bears at the Metrodome. I predict it will be a tough game...for which team remains to be seen. Buy a Vikings Ticket and see for yourself.

Minnesota Vikings Tame Detroit Lions at Metrodome Minneapolis
By Vikings Tickets (11/17/2009 03:24 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings beat the Detroit Lions 27-10 on Sunday at the Metrodome Minneapolis completing the season sweep over Detroit. The Vikings victory improves their record to 8-1. Vikings wide receiver Sidney Rice had a great game and racked up a career-high 201 receiving yards.

Vikings Victorious at Lambeau, Complete the Packers Sweep
By Vikings Tickets Manager (11/02/2009 01:21 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings beat the Green Bay Packers 38-26 at Lambeau Field on Sunday, officially sweeping the Packers this season. The Vikings Packers rivalry is huge and both teams hate losing to the other, but this year the Minnesota Vikings proved they were the stronger team and improved to a 7-1 record sitting atop the NFC North Division.
The Brett Favre homecoming was the central story of the Vikings Packers Lambeau game and Brett did not disappoint completing 17 of 28 passes for 244 yards, with a season-high four touchdowns and zero interceptions.
Brett Favre wasn't the only Vikings star, though, the rest of the Vikings roster played well including rookie receiver Percy Harvin catching 5 passes for 84 yards and a touchdown and returning 5 kicks for 175 yards.

It was a record setting crowd at Heinz Field (65,597 fans) on Sunday as the Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Minnesota Vikings 27-17, giving the Vikings their first loss of the season.
The Vikings offense played hard and tallied 386 yards and converted nine of 18 third-down situations. The Vikings defense also played tough and limited Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to 175 yards through the air.

The energy at the Metrodome was greater than any games in recent Vikings history. If you didn't buy a Vikings Packer ticket, you missed out on the greatest game of the season.
The Vikings victory improves their record to 4-0
at the top of the NFC North Division.
Brett Favre admitted he was as nervous as he's ever been before Monday night's game. The nerves certainly didn't rattle him, though, as he threw three touchdowns, completed 24 of 31 passes for 271 yards with no interceptions. The best part of the game was that Brett Favre was not a one-man show. Vikings defensive star Jared Allen recorded a career-high 4.5 sacks as the defense relentlessly pressured the Pack and Vikings special teams played at a high level as well.
There is definitely "Purple Pride" around the Twin Cities right now and Vikings fans will want to make plans to get to the Metrodome and see their Minnesota Vikings live!
Minnesota Vikings beat San Francisco 49ers with last second dramatics at the Metrodome Minneapolis
By Vikings Tickets (09/28/2009 12:41 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings beat the San Francisco 49ers to improve their NFL record to 3-0.
Vikings 27, 49ers 24
Over 63,000 fans were in attendance at the Metrodome Minneapolis to see Brett Favre do what every Viking fan had hoped he would, win games even at the last minute. The Vikings San Francisco game was the last second. Brett Favre flung a 32 yard pass to the back of the Vikings end zone where back-up receiver Greg Lewis made an amazing catch and kept both feet in bounds with a mere two seconds left on the clock. After the successful kick for the extra point, the Minnesota Vikings logged another victory into the 2009 season record books.
The Vikings victory improved the Vikings record to 3-0 and put the team prominently at the top of the NFC North division. The last second Brett Favre led victory will only intensify the drama leading up to next weeks Monday night Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers game.

By www.vikingstickets.com (09/21/2009 12:31 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings tamed the Detroit Lions in NFL Game Week 2 at Detroit.
Vikings 27, Lions 13
Vikings fans may have been a little nervous in the first half as the Lions came on strong, but the Minnesota Vikings rallied in the second half to achieve the victory, improving their record to 2-0. The undefeated record puts the Vikings on top of the NFC North Division.
Viking Chad Greenway had two interceptions, four tackles and recovered a fumble. Greenway is hoping the momentum will help the team in the home opener on Sunday against the 2-0 San Francisco 49ers.

Vikings beat Cleveland Browns in NFL Season Opener
By Vikings Tickets (09/14/2009 02:43 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings leashed the dog pound and beat the Cleveland Browns 34-20 in Cleveland on Sunday for their NFL Season Opener. The Minnesota Vikings defense was the star of the game, but the Vikings offense didn't disappoint either. Running back Adrian Peterson showed why he is the #1 running back in the NFL tallying over 180 yards and making the big plays when his team needed him. Rookie receiver Percy Harvin scored his first NFL touchdown and quickly silenced any doubters of his NFL caliber talent.
Even with all the talent on the Vikings roster, all eyes were on Vikings quarterback Brett Favre who didn't have a stellar numbers game, but did a good job at controlling the ball and leading the offense.
"I had a blast," Brett Favre said. "It wasn't a 400-yard passing game, but it doesn't have to be, as long as we win. That's what it's all about."
And win they did. S'kol Vikings S'kol.
Vikings Cowboys Game a Tale of Two Halves
By Vikings Tickets (09/06/2009 11:56 AM)
Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress best described the Vikings Cowboys preseason game as
"a tale of two halves."
The first half was all Minnesota as the Vikings defense turned the Dallas Cowboys offense over 3 times. Just minutes after the halftime break, though, the Dallas Cowboys turned up the heat with two interceptions that they returned for touch downs. The final nail in the Vikings coffin came late in the fourth quarter when Cowboys wide receiver Jesse Holley returned a punt 81 yards for a touchdown.
Minnesota Vikings fans left the Metrodome disappointed with the pre-season loss, but also hopeful that the offensive mistakes will be corrected in time for the opener at Cleveland and that the special teams will be stronger with first line players as opposed to the second line players that were in on Friday night.
The Vikings 31-35 loss put the Vikings preseason record at 3-1. Remember Vikings fans, starting on Sunday September 13th the Vikings record is 0-0 and the chase for an NFL playoff spot begins.
Remember: Choose In-Store Minneapolis pick-up and save the shipping fee. The Minneapolis retail store is located at
212 Chicago Avenue South right by the Metrodome for your convenience. The pick-up window will be open until 7pm on Friday.
Vikings Pre-Season Plays Impressive
By MN Vikings Fan (09/02/2009 02:50 PM)
Last night, the Minnesota Vikings beat the Houston Texans 17-10 in Houston for their third pre-season game and win. The Vikings pre-season plays were impressive and well orchestrated. I enjoyed the mix of screen plays and rushing plus a few wildcat plays in there to keep everyone on their toes. Brett Favre didn't disappoint and neither did the rest of the Vikings offense. Adrian Peterson rushed 117 yards and scored early to remind all of us Vikings fans why he is the best running back in the league.
Watching the Vikings beat the Houston Texans was rewarding, but watching from the couch is not nearly as satisfying as seeing the team live. Don't pass up the chance to see the Minnesota Vikings host the Dallas Cowboys this Friday night at the Metrodome Minneapolis. There are plenty of cheap Vikings tickets and it will be interesting to see if the Vikings can finish the 2009 NFL pre-season with a perfect record.

There are stillcheap Vikings Tickets for the final pre-season game at the Metrodome against the Dallas Cowboys on Friday September 4th. Many tickets are under face value as we try to liquidate the pre-season inventory. No word on how much Brett Favre will play, but a Vikings Cowboys match-up is always fun.
If it was me, I would scoop up those Section 140 Lower Level End Zone seats for $30 each- the face value is $74, that's better than half off! Remember, we don't charge added check-out or service fees so the price you see is the price you pay from start to finish!

Vikings Chiefs Game Hot Ticket, Results Don't Disappoint
By www.vikingstickets.com (08/24/2009 05:59 PM)
The paid attendance for the Vikings Chiefs game on Friday night was 62,782, one of the highest for a pre-season game in Vikings history. The energy at the HHH Metrodome was high especially during the opening drive when Brett Favre was on the field and then again at the end of the game when the Vikings defense held the Chiefs at their one yard line.
Way to go Vikings Defense!
The best part for this Minnesota Vikings fan was when the rest of the Vikings team was on the Metrodome sideline cheering for the Vikings defense to hold the Chiefs at the line. Adrian Peterson was pumped up and it was good to see that the Vikings players care about the result of the game, even if it was pre-season. The players care, the fans care - this is going to be a great Minnesota Vikings Season!
Final Result: Vikings 17 Kansas City Chiefs 13.
Minnesota Vikings Fans: Happy.

The Minnesota Vikings Brett Favre saga continues to be on the front burner of the sports media, but it looks like a decision could be coming soon.

Vikings Ticket Prices Prediction
By Vikings Tickets Webmaster (05/26/2009 10:18 AM)
Last week, Karen from Roseville emailed us to ask:
"Will Vikings ticket prices go up if Brett Favre is on the team?"
While I can not officially predict future Vikings ticket prices, my gut feeling is that the answer is Yes. Vikings ticket prices will increase if Brett Favre is the new Minnesota Vikings quarterback. Why? Curiosity by Vikings fans to see what Brett Favre can do for the team will increase Vikings ticket demand and thus increase prices.Also, if the team wins the first few games or does exceptionally well in the pre-season, Vikings ticket prices will go up for the later regular season games, especially the Chicago Bears game on November 29th and the January 3rd New York Giants game.
If you have a Vikings game you absolutely have to see, buy Minnesota Vikings tickets now to secure pricing and to be sure you don't get left out in the cold!

Vikings Roster Changes Inevitable
By #1 Vikings Fan (03/03/2009 01:49 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings roster is sure to change in the upcoming months. The NFL draft is not too far away, but there are already roster moves in place and the rumor mill is churning at top speed (well, not as quickly as when Brett Favre was on the docket, but you know what I mean).
Vikings fans are counting on a new quarterback donning a bright purple Vikings jersey this season and a new wide receiver or two (we hope!). Vikings fans are also aware that we may lose some of our favorite players (free agent Darren Sharper for example) and that some guys like Vinny Ciurciu have already been released.
Throughout all this change, one thing remains the same - true Vikings fans bleed purple and can't wait for the new season! Skol' Vikings!

Vikings lose Playoff game to Philadelphia Eagles at Dome
By Vikings Tickets (01/05/2009 01:51 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost their first home playoff game in eight years 26-14 to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Minneapolis Metrodome was filled with 61,746 football fans, most in purple, but the ones dressed in green left the happiest.
The Eagles outscored and outplayed the Minnesota Vikings, especially in the second half which sent fans streaming for the exits before the end of regulation. Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson had an unproductive game and the Vikings special teams unit gave up way too many yards for field position. The Vikings defense played well, but also gave up too many yards on third and long for the Eagles.
Do not despair Vikings fans! A ten win season and a playoff berth is plenty to celebrate.
Congrats on a good season Vikes!

Vikings beat Green Bay Packers
By Vikings Fan (11/11/2008 05:31 PM)
In a real nail biter, the Minnesota Vikings squeaked by the Green Bay Packers at the Metrodome Minneapolis on Sunday, winning 28-27. It was the first time Vikings head coach Brad Childress beat the Packers. All this Vikings Fan can say is, "whew." Childress has the Vikings defense particularly Jared Allen and the Vikings offense particularly Adrian Peterson to thank for the victory. Peterson rushed for 192 yards and made the game winning touchdown and Jared Allen was his usual fiery self irritating the Green Bay offense.
The Vikings win puts them at the top of the NFC North Division and has made the Vikings Bears game on November 30th even that more crucial.
The Minnesota Vikings will host the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, November 9th at noon at the Metrodome Minneapolis. The Vikings will feverishly try to avenge the season-opening loss to the Green Bay Packers that they suffered in front of national audiences during Monday Night Football.
This long standing rival game is selling quickly and Vikings fans will want to show up in great support of their purple team. You can bet plenty of Packers fans will be traveling west over the river to see their beloved green and gold in the rival stadium. Brad Childress has never beaten the Green Bay Packers as head coach of the Minnesota Vikings so you can bet this game is BIG for team Childress.
Vikings Packers start out at $69 EACH.

Vikings fall to Steelers in packed pre-season game
By Vikings Fan (08/27/2008 02:18 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 10-12 at the Metrodome last Saturday night in the third pre-season game of the year. The Metrodome was packed for a pre-season game. There were Vikings fans dressed in purple and plenty of those loyal (and pesky) Steelers fans.
As most NFL aficionados know, the team starters usually play a fair amount of downs in the third pre-season game of the year, but the Minnesota Vikings weren't taking any chances on further injuries with their star players vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers. Most of the Vikings starters including Bernard Berrian, Tarvaris Jackson and Sidney Rice didn't play at all.
Vikings Pre-Season Schedule includes Vikings Steelers match-up
By Vikings Tickets (08/15/2008 03:57 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings pre-season schedule includes one more home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday August 23rd. The sell-out Metrodome crowd last Friday night may have been disappointed with the 34-17 Minnesota Vikings loss, but Vikings fans are quick to remember that it is only pre-season and the loss won't count towards the Vikings playoff hunt.
The Minnesota Vikings starters only played a few snaps in the Vikings Seattle loss, but the packed Metrodome still enjoyed a solid NFL game. You can bet that the Vikings starters will be involved in more plays during the August 23rd Vikings Steelers game so Vikings fans won't want to miss the game! Besides, the Pittsburgh Steelers are notorious for having a loyal traveling fan base and Vikings fans will need to be out in full force to keep the home crowd purple.

Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers have been hogging all of the NFL news the past few days and Minnesota Vikings fans are paying attention. It is next to impossible that Brett Favre will become a Minnesota Viking, but that doesn't mean Vikings fans are uninterested in his future in the NFL.There is no doubt that the Brett Favre saga will continue into training camp. Brett or no Brett, Green Bay Packers tickets are still selling strong. One can't help but wonder if Vikings ticket prices would go up if Brett moved over to purple...nah, not going to happen.

Vikings team passionate, Vikings fans ecstatic
By Vikings Tickets (06/11/2008 10:22 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings have "passion" this year according to head coach Brad Childress. Speaking during one of the Vikings mini camp workouts, Childress made comments on how hard this particular group of guys have been working and how quickly the team is learning and developing.
Vikings fans have enjoyed watching the clips on the local nightly news and it's true that Vikings fever is at an all time high in the Twin Cities.
Vikings Mania
By Vikings Tickets (06/04/2008 01:48 PM)
Tom Powers from the Pioneer Press wrote: "Vikings Mania is nearly out of control. One year after generating zero offseason excitement, Vikings buzz is the official background noise of the Twin Cities."
He is right! The Minnesota Vikings are all the talk in the Twin Cities and you can bet Vikings Tickets will be a sought after commodity this season.

Minnesota Vikings receivers keep feet in bounds
By Vikings Fan (05/29/2008 01:55 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings wide receivers will have to get used to a new NFL rule next year. The NFL has announced that it is changing the force out rule to read that the receiver must have two feet in bounds in order for the catch to be complete, no exceptions. Before the new rule was passed in April, a wide receiver could be credited with a catch if he was forced out of bounds before having an opportunity to get his feet down, but not anymore!
Vikings receivers Sidney Rice and Bernard Berrian have been conscientiously practicing the new rule during organized team activities. Both receivers know that fancy footwork is now essential in bringing down those passes in the back end zone.
Tarvaris Jackson warming up his arm
By Vikings Fan (05/21/2008 01:10 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings organized team activities have begun and new wide receiver Bernard Berrian has been taking passes from Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson, a lot of passes. The two hope to build strong chemistry before and during Vikings training camp so they can come out firing on all cylinders. The Minnesota Vikings hope to come out with a strong offense come August and they know that having a solid passing game is essential to their success. Vikings fans, be ready for this purple and gold team to come out stronger than ever. Go Vikings!
Pat Williams excited about Vikings Defense
By Vikings Football Fan (05/14/2008 11:43 AM)
Defensive tackle Pat Williams is fired up for the 2008 Vikings season. Williams is particularly excited about the addition of Jared Allen to the Minnesota Vikings defense. Williams is quoted as saying, "It's going to be a fun year for me because they've got to slide towards Kevin [Williams] and Jared," Williams said. "They'll leave me one on one with the center, so I can beat him to death the whole game."
This years Minnesota Vikings defense will be reminiscent of the purple people eater days and Vikings fans are clamoring to get their Vikings Tickets to see it all unfold on the HHH Metrodome field.
Minnesota Vikings Training Camp
By Vikings Football Tickets (05/06/2008 01:57 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings will once again hold training camp at Minnesota State College in Mankato, Minnesota. Here are a few key dates to mark in your calendars for the 2008 Vikings training camp:
The Minnesota Vikings selected five players in the 2008 NFL Draft, the fewest in team history, thanks to the blockbuster Jared Allen deal that transpired last week that forced the Vikings to hand over three picks to the Kansas City Chiefs. With all 22 Vikings starters already in place and many of their backups essentially determined, the Vikings didn't need to make a lot of moves in the draft. Here are the 2008 Minnesota Vikings draft picks:
Safety Tyrell Johnson (Arkansas State )
Quarterback John David Booty (Southern Cal)
Defensive Tackle Letroy Guion (Florida State)
Center John Sullivan (Notre Dame)
Receiver Jaymar Johnson (Jackson State)
Jared Allen is newest Minnesota Viking
By Minnesota Vikings Fan (04/24/2008 12:15 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings secured defensive end Jared Allen from the Kansas City Chiefs in a $74 million deal that makes Jared Allen the highest paid defensive player in the league. Allen will sport the purple and gold number 69 Vikings jersey for the next six years. The Vikings gave up a first and two third round draft picks in the trade. Bringing a star like Jared Allen into the Vikings organization right now is a message to Vikings fans that the Minnesota Vikings are committed to winning this season.
Jared Allen led the NFL in sacks last year with 15 1/2 sacks and this Minnesota Vikings fan looks forward to him putting the pass pressure on the opposing teams this Vikings season. Jared Allen is definitely another reason to buy Minnesota Vikings tickets today!

Leslie Frazier assistant head coach
By Vikings Tickets (03/20/2008 11:28 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings added "assistant head coach" to Leslie Fraziers title this week officially spotlighting his dual role with the Vikings. Vikings head Coach Brad Childress hired Frazier last year as defensive coordinator, but Fraziers role within the organization was much more than just a defensive guy. In fact, Leslie Frazier spent much of the past year advising coach Childress on "everything ... from top to bottom, on our roster." Although the additional title is largely ceremonial in the NFL, Frazier said it "kind of makes things official." As part of the title change, Leslie Frazier's contract was extended through the 2009 season.
Many Vikings fans are appreciative of the job Leslie Frazier does with the Vikings and will be excited to have him back for the upcoming Vikings Season!
Brett Favre Retires
By Vikings Tickets (03/11/2008 03:17 PM)
Last week brought big news to the NFL Community, Green Bay Packer quarterback Brett Favre retired after 17 years in the National Football League. Favre cited "tired" as his reason for retiring. Brett Favre was one of the greatest NFL quarterbacks, but from a competitive standpoint, Favres retirement is good for the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC. It will give the Vikings a chance to be ultra competitive in the NFC and when the Vikings win, fans will come out to games! I am excited for the Vikings season to begin!
The Minnesota Vikings have been busy signing key players for the 2008 Vikings season. The Vikings signed safety Madieu Williams to a six-year, $33 million contract to replace Dwight Smith. Other big moves by the Minnesota Vikings football team include signing former Minnesota Gopher Thomas Tapeh to a five-year, $6 million free-agent contract. Perhaps the biggest Vikings acquisition was the signing of wide receiver Bernard Berrian to a six-year, $42 million contract.
With all the new Vikings players, the 2008 Minnesota Vikings team will be stronger than ever! Be sure to check back to www.vikingstickets.com for all Minnesota Viking ticket updates!

Minnesota Vikings release Dwight Smith
By Vikings Tickets (02/21/2008 03:00 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings released safety Dwight Smith yesterday. Smith has spent two seasons with the Minnesota Vikings and is a seven year NFL veteran. Smith will become an unrestricted free agent and will more than likely begin working on offers with other NFL teams before the free agency period signing begins on February 29th.
Smith had four interceptions last year with the Vikings, including a 93-yard touchdown against the eventual Super Bowl champion New York Giants.
Vikings raise ticket prices
By www.vikingstickets.com (02/14/2008 06:17 PM)

Minnesota Vikings Update on the Pro Football Hall of Fame
By Vikings Fan (02/12/2008 04:06 PM)
Former Minnesota Viking Gary Zimmerman was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame last week, but Minnesota Viking Cris Carter was not. Zimmerman was one of six players selected for the Class of 2008, while Carter and former Vikings guard Randall McDaniel made the final 10 but were eliminated in the final cutdown.
Zimmerman spent seven of his 12 NFL seasons with the Minnesota Vikings, earning three Pro Bowl invitations. He spent the remaining 5 season with the Denver Broncos where he made the Pro Bowl five more times and earned a Super Bowl ring.
Many Minnesota Vikings fans were surprised that Cris Carter didn't make the cut, but there is always next year and it really is an honor to be nominated. This Vikings fan looks forward to seeing "CC" on next years class list!

Giants win the Super Bowl
By Vikings Fan (02/05/2008 10:05 AM)
The New York Giants won Super Bowl XLII in Phoenix on Sunday in what is being called one of the greatest upsets in NFL history. The Giants beat the New England Patriots by a score of 17-14 in front of a record 97.5 million United States TV viewers.
Had the Patriots won the game, they would have completed a perfect season, the first since the 1972 Miami Dolphins, and the only one since the league expanded to a 16-game regular season in 1978. The Patriots were 12 point favorites at kick-off, but it was a battle of the defenses that no one expected.
It seemed strange to many Minnesota Vikings fans that the New York Giants were in the playoffs and we weren't because Minnesota beat the New York Giants during the regular season 41-17 at the Meadowlands. It just goes to show strong play at the end of the season really does pay off in the NFL.

First Cottrell, now possibly Frazier
By Vikings Update (01/22/2008 10:22 AM)
Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier is in talks with the Miami Dolphins and Atlanta Falcons for a head coaching position, but rumor says he is content with his current position with the Vikings. The Vikings were once again one of the top NFL defenses in 2007. Teams had a lot of difficulty running the ball against them, and the secondary was severely underestimated. So can the Vikings afford to lose another exceptional defensive coordinator?
Ted Cottrell started the Vikings trend of a solid rushing defense, and he immediately left to be the defensive coordinator for the San Diego Chargers. Leslie Frazier seems a bit more likely to stay put here in Minnesota, however. The Vikings solid defensive play can continue if we don't let another great coach get away.

Vikings lose to Denver, End Season 8-8
By Vikings Tickets (12/31/2007 10:30 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Denver Broncos last night and ended their season 8-8. The overtime loss, topped off by a Washington Redskins victory over Dallas officially ended any hope for a Vikings playoff game.
The Vikings lost 19-22 after the Denver Broncos kicked a 30 yard field goal in overtime at Mile High Stadium in Denver. The Vikings fought hard overcoming a 19-3 fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime, but Tarvaris Jackson fumbled the ball on the second play of overtime giving the Broncos the game.
"I love the way we fought back in the fourth quarter, but once again turnovers killed us," Vikings linebacker Ben Leber said. "It seems to be our Achilles' heel, and until we get that shored up and figured out, we're not going to be much better of a team next year."
Vikings fans have confidence that changes will be made in the Vikings offseason that will help next seasons Vikings team to be better than 8-8.
Be sure to check back to VikingsTickets.com throughout the offseason for player updates and exclusive Vikings Ticket deals! Happy New Year Vikings Fans!
Vikings playoff hopes still alive
By Vikings Tickets Web Site (12/27/2007 01:31 PM)
The Vikings could have secured a playoff spot with a victory last Sunday, but now they must beat the Denver Broncos on the road in their regular season finale and the Vikings must rely on the Dallas Cowboys to beat the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field in Maryland. The Washington Dallas game is scheduled to start at 3:15pm on Sunday December 30th just like the Denver Minnesota game. You can bet Vikings fans will be keeping an eye on both games. Check back to http://www.vikingstickets.com/ to get the latest Vikings playoff updates. Go Vikings!
Vikings lose to Redskins
By Minnesota Vikings Fan (12/24/2007 04:27 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Washington Redskins last night at the HHH Metrodome. The Vikings lost 21 to 32 in front of a sold out Metrodome crowd, many fans were decked out in Santa hats and braved snowy road conditions to see the Vikings team play the final home game of the regular season. With a win the Vikings could have secured a playoff spot, but the Vikings offense was unable to get it together and the defense couldn't make the big plays Vikings fans have become accustomed to.
The Washington Redskins held Adrian Peterson to 27 yards on nine carries and Chester Taylor finished with a mere 14 yards on six carries. Tarvaris Jackson gave up several turnovers that ultimately gave the Redskins points and momentum to win the game. The Vikings folded under pressure and there is no doubt in this Vikings fans mind that a serious review of the quarterback position and the offense in general is needed. The Vikings travel to Denver to take on the Broncos on Sunday December 30 in the final game of the regualr season. Let's hope the Vikings playoff ship hasn't already sailed.

The Minnesota Vikings beat the Chicago Bears at the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome last night 20-13. It wasn't the most exciting Monday Night Football game of the season, but Vikings fans held their breath through the finish and were elated the Vikings won. Once again the Vikings defense was top notch and held the Bears to a mere 32 yards rushing. The game would not have been so close, but the Vikings offense was shaky and gave up several turnovers that resulted in Chicago Bears points.
The Vikings control their own playoff destiny and just need to keep winning in order to secure and NFC playoff spot. S'kol Vikings!

With only six games left of the Vikings season, the 3-6 team will need some good fortune as they prepare for the only two teams with winning records left on their schedule.
First up: the New York Giants (7-3), followed by the Detroit Lions (6-4) at the Metrodome. After that, the Vikings face the San Francisco 49ers (2-7), Chicago Bears (4-6) at home, Washington Redskins (5-5)at the Dome and finish the season at the Denver Broncos (4-5).
The Minnesota Vikings beat the Oakland Raiders 29-22 at the Metrodome on Sunday in front of 62,960 fans. The game was a nail biter between two ailing NFL teams. My favorite play of the game came in the opening drive when Chester Taylor took the handoff and headed left. But he flipped the ball to rookie receiver Sidney Rice, who was headed to the right. Rice heaved a 60-yard pass to tight end Visanthe Shiancoe. By the time he was dragged down, Shiancoe had a 79-yard reception, the longest in team history by a tight end, and Taylor ran it in for a touchdown from 10 yards out on the next play. It was a great way to start a Minnesota Vikings game.
With Vikings rookie Adrian Peterson sidelined, veteran running back Chester Taylor paced the Vikings' run offense with 164 yards and three touchdowns on 22 carries. Quarterback Tarvaris Jackson generated a season-high 171 yards passing against a Raiders pass defense that entered the game ranked fourth in the NFL. Raiders quarterback, former Vikings quarterback, Daunte Culpepper completed 23 of 39 passes for 344 yards.
Culpepper returns to Metrodome
By Vikings Football Fan (11/16/2007 08:22 AM)
Be sure to buy your Vikings Oakland Raiders tickets and see Daunte Culpepper back at the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome. Culpepper will be the starting quarterback for the Oakland Raiders and says he is looking forward to playing in front of the "wild Vikings fans." The Vikings are in desperate need of a win and I am sure Coach Childress will not want to see Culpepper have a good day. The two parted under tense conditions and it's no secret that Culpepper didn't mesh with the coach or even Vikings fans after the Vikings boat scandal. I am sure there will be plenty of fans pumped to jeer Culpepper and I am sure we will see a few purple Culpepper jerseys dusted off for this game and maybe a few skipper hats as well. Let's go Vikings!

Minnesota Vikings lose to Green Bay Packers
By Vikings Tickets (11/14/2007 12:44 PM)
The Vikings lost to the Packers 34-0 at Lambeau Field last Sunday. Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packer offense seemed unstoppable as Favre threw for over 300 yards for the second time against the Vikings this season. The win improved Green Bay to 8-1 and slid the Vikings to 3-6.
A suffocating Packers defense held Minnesota to just 247 total net yards and shut down Adrian Peterson. The poor Vikings performance was further dismal as Peterson left the game with a knee injury in the third quarter. Along with not being able to run the ball, Minnesota couldn't get the passing game going, either. Vikings quarterback Brooks Bollinger finished the game going 16 of 26 for 176 yards, no touchdowns and one interception.
The Minnesota Vikings will play the Oakland Raiders at the Metrodome this Sunday. Vikings Tickets are less than $15! Buy your cheap Vikings tickets today!
Vikings gear up for Packer game
By Vikings Tickets (11/09/2007 09:41 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings travel to Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers this Sunday. The Vikings will need to step up the pass defense if they intend to shut down Brett Favre on his home turf. In Week 4 at the Metrodome, the Vikings allowed Favre to go 32 of 45 for 344 yards and two touchdowns, including his record-setting 421st career scoring throw.
"We would like to be more successful this time and as I talked to you about, we have got to be better with our pass rush," Vikings Head Coach Brad Childress said. "It's still going to start with stopping the run for us but the pass rush, coverage, attempting to get after a guy that is pretty good with the ball in his hand as a passer and knows how to get it out of his hand."
Besides shutting down Favre, the Vikings also have to put their own points on the board. It looks like Brooks Bollinger will get the nod at quarterback and using Adrian Peterson for the run and Sidney Rice for the pass will be key to the Vikings success. Good luck at Lambeau, boys! Play the Packers tough!
Vikings quarterback controversy continues
By Vikings Football Fan (11/08/2007 11:52 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings are notorious for having quarterback controversies and this year is no exception. "Who will play this weekend, coach?" Has been the classic question from local media mid-week and this week the quarterback situation remains unstable.
Coach Childress said on Wednesday that Tarvaris Jackson willl continue to try and recover from the concussion he suffered last Sunday against the Chargers. The next step in the recovery process, according to Coach Childress, is to get Jackson out on the practice field. Jackson's availability for the rest of the week and for this Sunday against the Packers is up in the air. Coach Childress did confirm that if Jackson was unable to go against Green Bay, Brooks Bollinger would start in his place.
To further complicate the quarterback mayhem, the Vikings signed Koy Detmer. Of course it could've been worse - the Vikings also worked out Chris Weinke.But Detmer is, naturally, "familiar with the system" by virtue of having been with the Eagles.So he's in. This Vikings fan hopes Brooks Bollinger can take Lambeau field by storm!
Let's go Vikings!
Adrian Peterson named NFC Offensive Player of the Week
By Vikings Tickets (11/07/2007 11:39 AM)
Star Vikings Running Back Adrian Peterson earned NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors for his 296 yards rushing performance in last Sundays win over the San Diego Chargers. Peterson set a new NFL record, breaking former Baltimore Ravens running back Jamal Lewis' mark of 295 set in 2003.
"It's an honor and it says a lot about those guys blocking for me in the line and the receivers doing a great job sealing the edge," Peterson said. "I'm humbled to have the rushing record, but more importantly it comes in a win that we really needed to get the second half of the season started the right way."
This is the second time this season that Peterson has been selected as the NFC Offensive Player of the Week; he also earned the honor for his 224 yard performance at Soldier Field vs. Chicago. He currently leads the NFL in rushing with 1,036 yards.It's nice to have a star player to brag about in Vikings country. Congrats Adrian, well deserved!
Vikings beat Chargers in best game of the season
By Vikings Football Fan (11/06/2007 09:41 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings beat the San Diego Chargers on Sunday at the HHH Metrodome 35-17. The game logged 2 NFL records, one for the NFL's single-game rushing record thanks to Vikings running back Adrian Peterson's 296 yard day and a second record for the longest field goal return (109 yds by Charger Antonio Cromartie ) thanks to poor work by the Vikings field goal unit.
Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson got hurt again, and backup Brooks Bollinger looked solid in the second half handing the ball off to Adrian Peterson and throwing a 40-yard touchdown pass to Sidney Rice.The Vikings defense did their job as well and even forced Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers to throw 10 incomplete passes in a row.
The star of the game was clearly Adrian Peterson who also tied the team record for most rushing touchdowns in a game with 3, he joins Vikings legend Chuck Foreman as the only Viking in franchise history to rush for 3 touchdowns in a game more than once. Adrian Peterson has what it takes to keep this franchise alive, so let's hope he plays often, plays well and stays healthy.
Tarvaris Jackson will start on Sunday
By Vikings News Fan (11/01/2007 06:37 PM)
Local news is reporting that Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson will be the starting quarterback for Sundays Vikings San Diego Chargers game. The Chargers are ranked 7th in the AFC and the Vikings will need more than home field advantage to win the big game on Sunday. Tarvaris Jackson will need to be 100% ready and in control of the Vikings offense.I will see you at the Dome, Vikings fans!
Vikings Blackout Danger
By Vikings Tickets (10/31/2007 10:24 AM)
For the second time this year, the Minnesota Vikings are in danger of a TV blackout. The Vikings need to sell around 2,000 tickets before the Thursday noon deadline set by the NFL. If the Vikings achieve the goal, the Chargers game will be the Vikings 100th consecutive sell-out. The NFL requires that Vikings sell 62,000 tickets to consider the Metrodome a sold out venue. It is suspected that WCCO-TV, who has the broadcasting rights to this game, will work out a plan to meet the ticket goal. There are still plenty of great seats left, buy your Vikings Chargers tickets today!
Vikings lose to Philadelphia Eagles
By Vikings Tickets (10/29/2007 11:11 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Philadelphia Eagles yesterday 23-16 at the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome. Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was no match for the Vikings defense. McNabb, who completed 23 of 36 passes for 333 yards with one touchdown and no turnovers, converted several clutch plays, most notably a 31-yard pass to receiver Kevin Curtis midway through the fourth quarter. Although he doesn't appear as mobile as he was earlier in his career, McNabb was nimble enough to avoid pass rushers and complete clutch passes.
The Vikings offense had no spark of their own as Vikings starting quarterback Kelly Holcomb threw for a mere 88 yards before being injured. Back-up, back-up quarterback Brooks Bollinger then came in and tried his best to fire up the offense, but it wasn't enough to score even one touchdown. With the exception of a few Adrian Peterson bursts that totaled a disappointing 70 yards, the Vikings offense lacked explosion, especially at key times, and was unable to finish drives with touchdowns.
Let's hope the Vikings can regroup their offense and figure out how to penetrate the goal line when they take on the San Diego Chargers next Sunday at the Metrodome. There are still plenty of cheap Vikings tickets for sale!
Vikings play Eagles at Metrodome
By Vikings Tickets (10/25/2007 09:01 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings will take on the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday at the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome Minneapolis. This is the only Vikings home game during the month of October. Like the Vikings, the Eagles are a disappointing 2-4, but they bring with them a talented offensive line, Pro Bowl running back Brian Westbrook, Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb and young receiver Reggie Brown, who last season had 816 receiving yards and scored nine touchdowns.
The Vikings really need a win on their home turf, but they will have to shut down a hungry Eagles squad. There are still great Vikings Eagles tickets available including upper level seats for under $20 and lower level end zone seats for under $75.

Vikings lose to Cowboys
By Vikings Fan (10/22/2007 11:36 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Dallas Cowboys 24-14 in Dallas on Sunday. It was a typical Vikings fan roller coaster ride. Strong early, stammer late and then a loss to top it all off. It was a warm 85 degrees in Dallas and probably ten degrees hotter on the artificial turf, but all that heat wasn't enough to tire the Dallas boys out or put a fire under our Minnesota Vikings. Tarvaris Jackson did not perform well (6 for 19, 72 yards) and rookie running back Adrian Peterson did not get the on-field opportunities he deserved. The Vikings ran 49 plays and Peterson was only in 13 of them. Peterson is clearly THE MAN of the Vikings offense and players and fans alike are tired of not seeing the number 28 Peterson jersey on the field. The Minnesota Vikings 2-4 record is not reflective of the talent on this team and coach Brad Childress needs to salvage the rest of this Vikings season quickly.
Vikings Beat NFC North Rival Bears
By Vikings Fan (10/17/2007 01:18 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings beat the Chicago Bears last Sunday at Soldier Field 34-31. Vikings kicker Ryan Longwell booted a career high 55-yard field goal as time expired to secure the game for the Vikings, but the real story of the day was Vikings rookie running back, Adrian Peterson. Peterson rushed for 224 yards on just 20 carries and scored three touchdowns for the Minnesota Vikings. There is no doubt that Adrian Peterson jerseys will be flying off Vikings apparel shelves. Vikings QB Tarvaris Jackson, coming off a groin strain, had no turnovers and played relatively well for the Vikings.
Next up for the Vikings football team is a tough match-up against the Dallas Cowboys in Dallas. The Cowboys are coming off their first loss of the season, but are a solid Super Bowl contender team. The Minnesota Vikings defense will definitely be tested by Cowboys QB Tony Romo. Let's go Vikings!
Vikings Lose To Packers, Use Bye Week to Recover
By Vikings Tickets (10/10/2007 02:30 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Green Bay Packers and for Vikings fans it was a disappointing day. For Green Bay Packers fans it was a day that history was made as Packer quarterback Brett Favre broke Dan Marino's NFL touchdown record. The Vikings had trouble finding the End Zone and lost the game 23-16 in front of a sell out Metrodome crowd. After a much needed Bye week to regroup the team, the Minnesota Vikings should be ready to go when they face NFC North rival Chicago Bears at Soldier Field this Sunday. The next Vikings home game is the ONLY home game in the month of October on Sunday the 28th vs. the Philadelphia Eagles. There are upper deck Vikings tickets at below face value so scoop up your Vikings Tickets today!
Vikings Packer Ticket Hot
By Minnesota Vikings Fan (09/26/2007 07:32 PM)
A local Twin Cities Tickets blog makes mention of the fact that the Vikings Packers game is a hot ticket this weekend even if the Vikings aren't a hot team. It appears that many Packers fans are making the trip across the border to see their very own Brett Favre attempt to break the Dan Marino touchdown record. The game is so hot local news stations are even doing a story on it.
Don't just sit on the couch on Sunday, be at the Dome to see a great rival football game and to see NFL history live and in person. Buy your Vikings Packers Tickets today!We will see you at the Dome!
Holcomb Chosen, Vikes lose to Chiefs
By Vikings Tickets (09/24/2007 06:09 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings gave Kelly Holcomb the nod to play in the Kansas City Chiefs game yesterday. Holcomb went 14 for 28 as the Vikes let the Chiefs steal the game away losing 13-10. Minnesota led for much of the game but failed to answer a late Chiefs touchdown.
I think the best and then ultimately most disappointing moment/drive was when Chad Greenway recovered a fumble on the Chiefs 33 yard line and then three plays later Mewelde Moore took a handoff and lobbed a pass to Visanthe Shiancoe that appeared to be a touchdown. The official ruled that Shiancoe was unable to cradle the ball without it hitting the ground, prompting the Vikings to challenge. The ruling was upheld, however, and the Vikings had to settle for field goal. Other mishaps plagued the Vikings including Adrian Peterson fumbling two plays in a row and Holcomb overthrowing a wide open Robert Ferguson on what would've been an easy touchdown. The Vikings had many opportunities to win the game, but came up short. Let's hope the Vikings can practice all week and get ready to fight the Packers next Sunday at home.
Vikings Wait to Annouce Quarterback
By Vikings Tickets (09/20/2007 02:35 PM)
With Vikings QB Tarvaris Jackson still hurt from last Sunday's game, Brad Childress is forced to pick a new starter for the Kansas City Chiefs game this Sunday. Both Brooks Bollinger and Kelly Holcomb have had playing time on the Vikings offense, but Childress is keeping quiet about his choice.Most sports sources point to quarterback Kelly Holcomb to get the nod. Holcomb, 34, who was acquired in late August from Philadelphia for a sixth-round pick in 2009, is familiar with the West Coast offense the Vikings use. Along with his offensive experience, the 11-year veteran has 21 career starts and a strong arm so Childress thinks any transition to starter will be smooth. Vikings fans will be holding their breath until the official quarterback decision is made and probably won't let out the sigh of relief until the Vikings beat the Chiefs on Sunday.
Vikings Lose to Lions
By Vikings Tickets (09/18/2007 04:21 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions both started Sunday atop the NFC North, but by the end of the game neither team would look like a legitimate contender. The game was littered with turnovers and horrendous offenses. It was a game of who wanted to lose worst and it finally ended when Lions kicker Jason Hanson booted a 37-yard field goal in overtime to give the Lions a 20-17 victory.
The Vikings offense showed that they still had much growing up to do. Tarvaris Jackson still needs to work on quick decision making including when to scramble and when to stay in the pocket. Jackson left the game with a reported groin injury. The Vikings were also guilty of 12 penalties - the worst probably being a Kevin Williams off-sides call on a 4th down, which ultimately allowed Detroit to kick a field goal and take a 10-7 lead into the half.
The Vikings defense once again looked top notch. A pick by Darren Sharper ended a potential Detroit scoring drive in the first and the next drive was stalled when Lions QB Jon Kitna stumbled and was sacked by Kenechi Udeze. Despite the officials overlooking a lot of Lions offensive holding, the Minnesota Vikings defense came out on top.
The Vikings will try to regroup next weekend against the 0-2 Kansas City Chiefs in Kansas.
Vikings beat Atlanta Falcons
By Vikings Tickets (09/12/2007 04:06 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings beat the Atlanta Falcons in the season opener at the Metrodome Minneapolis on Sunday. The Vikings defense looked amazing and the offense was able to hold its own to easily beat the Falcons 24-3. Rookie Vikings running back Adrian Peterson held the audiences attention from start to finish. In the first quarter, Peterson started on the field as the deep returnman on opening kickoff. In the fourth quarter, Peterson erupted with 7:19 remaining in the game. Peterson took a swing pass from quarterback Tarvaris Jackson 60 yards for his first NFL score.
The Vikings defense was led by defensive tackle Kevin Williams who recorded an interception in the first quarter and ran 54 yards for a touchdown. The fans in the Metrodome did a nice job on defense as well. On two occasions in the 2nd quarter Falcons quarterback Joey Harrington tried to audible at the line but was forced to burn a time out due to the crowd noise level. Way to go Vikings fans! Next up is a road trip to Detroit to play the Lions. Let's hope the Vikings can keep the positive momentum and beat our division rival.

Vikings on verge of Blackout
By Vikings Tickets (09/05/2007 02:03 PM)
I was reading over on http://www.vikingsfootballhome.blogspot.com/, the Vikings blog of Vikings fan Vikings Vixen that the Minnesota Vikings still need to sell over 3,000 tickets to the home opener vs. the Atlanta Falcons or the game will be blacked out in the major TV viewing area. The NFL requires that Vikings sell 62,000 tickets to consider the Metrodome a sell-out and in years past large corporations have came in and bought large blocks of tickets in order to keep the game televised. However, no corporation has stepped forward yet and the Vikings only have until Thursday (9/6) at noon to sell the tickets to the September 9th game. Vikings fans, the home opener is sure to be an exciting game so buy your Vikings tickets now!
Childress gives Jackson starting nod
By VikingsTickets.com (08/28/2007 06:49 PM)
Not like the Minnesota Vikings had much of a choice, but head coach Brad Childress named quarterback Tarvaris Jackson to the starting job on Monday after practice. The quarterback received the news with little surprise, and went about his business like normal. So far this preseason, it has seemed like Jackson could get the job done at the position this season. He hasn't thrown a touchdown yet, but he hasn't necessarily received the chances to. He has a passer rating of 76.8 and has only committed one turnover on a fumbled snap. The Vikings acquired another possible backup quarterback on Monday in Kelly Holcomb, pushing Jackson to perform with even greater precision. With Brooks Bollinger struggling in the preseason, Holcomb could very well be next in line behind Jackson.
Jackson should get more passing downs Saturday
By VikingsTickets.com (08/21/2007 11:09 AM)
Tarvaris Jackson has only thrown the ball 15 times with 10 completions in two preseason games, but Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress insists he isn't worried according to Don Seeholzer of the Pioneer Press. Hopefully, the Vikings coaching staff will get a better chance to see their probably starting quarterback in Saturday night's game at the Seattle Seahawks. The cause for concern stemmed from a very limited role by Jackson in last Friday's matchup with the New York Jets. In that game, the Vikings defense returned two interceptions for touchdowns in the first quarter, and Jackson ended the game with only 2 of 4 passes completed for 12 yards. Childress said he won't force passes out of Jackson on Saturday night by calling more passing plays; he said he will call whatever plays it takes to win.
Vikings eyeing another former Packer
By VikingsTickets.com (08/20/2007 11:04 AM)
The Green Bay Packers released veteran wide receiver Robert Ferguson last week, perking the interests of the Minnesota Vikings. Ferguson worked out for the Vikings on Sunday afternoon at Winter Park. He could become another in a line of ex-Packer players who crossed the border to the Vikings including Darren Sharper and Ryan Longwell. Sharper is actually a huge proponent of a reunion with Ferguson. "He's been in the fire," Sharper said in a Pioneer Press article. "Knows the offense. And he brings that experience. And he makes plays in this league."
Although the Viking's roster is full of receiver hopefuls, the aspect of signing Ferguson is appealing to the Vikings because the club needs greater experience at the position. Ferguson is a solid receiver, but he has had sever injury problems in his career. Ferguson hasn't played a whole season since the 2002 campaign. Right now, however, it appears the Vikings have nothing to lose if they can sign Ferguson at bargain basement price.
Jason Glenn Retires
By Vikings Tickets (08/15/2007 05:32 AM)
Minnesota Vikings head Coach Brad Childress announced that Vikings linebacker Jason Glenn has decided to retire after being unable to get his aching knees completely healthy. Glenn has been performing well on special teams and Childress praised his determination, leadership and work ethic. At Vikings training camp, Jason Glenn gave it his all and was hoping to be inked in as one of the Vikings backup linebackers. Glenn spent the first two weeks looking relatively healthy, but Coach Childress says Glenn's knees were aching all along. Childress remarked to the press that he hopes to see Jason Glenn return to the Vikings team in a player-development role.Read about Jason Glenn's career on www.vikingstickets.com/JasonGlenn
Vikings execute in first preseason effort
By Vikingstickets.com (08/14/2007 03:28 PM)
Everything looked good for the Minnesota Vikings last Friday night, as the team played its first preseason game of the 2007 campaign. Key players performed well, including quarterbacks Tarvaris Jackson and Brooks Bollinger, running back Adrian Peterson and linebacker Dontarrious Thomas.
Jackson was consistent and effective, averaging over ten yards per pass. He went 8-11 for 83 yards, and encouraging sign that he might be doing more this season than merely dropping the ball over the middle for short gains. Peterson played despite a minor hip injury. He rushed 11 times and gained 33 yards, not exactly the production the Vikings wanted but his volume was solid. Bollinger got the job done working as Jackson’s backup in the game. He completed four-of-six passes for 23 yards.
But perhaps the play of the game for the Vikings came when Thomas picked off a Ryan Fitzpatrick pass and returned it 82 yards for a touchdown. The Vikings were briefly ahead until the Rams tied the game at 10-10 in the fourth quarter. The Rams then went on to win the game on a last second field goal by Rams’ kicker Kevin Lovell.
Edwards is an angry man
By Vikingstickets.com (08/09/2007 10:20 AM)
The Minnesota Vikings have seemed to find a guy that would be perfect for an NFL defensive line, that is, a guy that you might find in a prison recreation yard pumping iron for eight hours a day, getting into and winning every fight he incites and murdering people on the prison football field like that big ugly guy in "The Longest Yard."
That guy just might be Ray Edwards, whom the Vikings picked up in last years draft and picked up three sacks in his rookie season. The Vikings have inserted Edwards into the starting lineup during this spring, and the team hopes he is a big part of its future. Edwards escalated a scrum at the Vikings and Kansas City Chiefs practice scrimmage last Saturday night by throwing punches left and right. It's this temper that Edwards claims makes him a good football player, but the Vikings want him to cool off in order for him to not get kicked out of games.
The 22-year-old Edwards isn't necessarily a problem child, however. He was a regular at the team's offseason workout program, so the Vikings know commitment to the team isn't an issue. If Edwards can keep his cool, the Vikings pass rush should have a formidable threat to opponents' backfields.
Summer, training camp heat up
By Vikingstickets.com (07/31/2007 10:14 AM)
Key Viking offensive position races are as hot as a Mankato summer, and among them are the running back and wide receiver spot. The preseason opener against St. Louis is only ten days away and Vikings head coach Brad Childress is getting a good look at some of his unproven prospects before the exhibitions begin. With Chester Taylor hurting with a bruised arm and Adrian Peterson just arriving at camp after a three-day holdout, Mewelde Moore and Artose Pinner have been getting a lot of action at the running back spot. Childress has said that Moore is having a "quiet" training camp but he has been getting "incrementally" better at things like blocking. Childress also said Pinner is doing well in blocking situations.
At the wide receiver position, the Vikings have some flashy young talent with Aundrae Allison and others, but Childress has commented that he hasn't seen the consistency he would like from his receiving corps. Childress isn't looking for the next Randy Moss, but would rather like possession receiver who can run his trademark five yard crossing patterns with precision. Former Bears receiver Bobby Wade is a good candidate to fit into Childress' scheme, as well as a source of mentorship to the younger receivers.
Defense to put on the rush
By VikingsTickets.com (07/24/2007 10:08 AM)
One of the weaknesses that the Minnesota Vikings attempted to address was their poor NFL ranking in sacks during last season. The team recorded only 30, putting them at 25th in the league. This year, the Vikings hope to use a defensive linemen rotation to keep legs fresh and record more sacks. By putting pressure on the quarterback, the Vikings hope to raise their dead last ranking of overall pass defense from last season. Although the Vikings do have two Pro-Bowl caliber linemen in Kevin Williams and Pat Williams, the two big men would often fatigue toward the end games last year. With the addition of rookie Brian Robison, the Vikings are trying to keep linemen fresh, and the opposing quarterback hurried.
New quarterback, same offensive mindset
By VikingTickets.com (07/17/2007 10:01 AM)
Mike Wobschall of Vikings.com reports that the Minnesota Vikings will most likely not experiment with a new offensive scheme now that the team has a new quarterback. Head coach Brad Childress will make tweaks to his offense merely in the play-calling realm. Many Vikings fans miss the days of the deep ball to Randy Moss in Minnesota, and with the lack of receiving talent the Vikings have today, the deep ball will probably not be in the Vikings arsenal again this season. If Tarvaris Jackson lands the starting quarterback job, his inexperience will probably encourage Childress to keep him on a short leash as far as improvisation goes, as Childress likes to run a conservative offense consisting of a healthy running game and short dump passes. However, Wobschall predicts that the Vikings may run more "rollouts, bootlegs and moving pockets" with Jackson as quarterback, perhaps making the Vikings "O" a little more fun to watch.
Vikings Invite Chiefs to Practice

Minnesota Vikings roster moves continued to eddy this week as the team signed their 6th-round draft pick Rufus Alexander. Alexander is the third Viking rookie to sign with the team along with quarterback Tyler Thigpen and wide receiver Chandler Williams. The Vikings are hoping Alexander can contribute to their team of linebackers immediately. He was Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year in his senior season at Oklahoma and was voted All-Big 12 selection twice.
Updating previous reports, the Vikings had a try with wide receiver Paris Hamilton but promptly waived him.
Vikings add one receiver, drop another

The Minnesota Vikings signed former University of Minnesota wide receiver Paris Hamilton on June 13 as part of their effort to augment the receiving corps. Free agent wide receiver Randy Hymes wasn't working out for the Vikings, so they cut him to make room for Hamilton.
Hamilton's NFL career has been in limbo the last couple of seasons as he was not able to make the Detroit Lions squad last season and made only the practice squad for the Lions in 2005. Part of Hamilton's problems have been injury-related, as he blew out his left knee and missed his entire junior season at the U of M. He did come back his senior season on a surgically repaired knee, catching four balls for 198 yards and two touchdowns in 2004. The Vikings hope Hamilton can show the spark that he displayed when he came to the Gophers from Tyler Junior College in 2003.
Vikings need receiving threat
By VikingsTickets.com (06/05/2007 09:30 AM)
After perennially solid play from Minnesota Vikings wide receivers back in the Cris Carter /Randy Moss era, Vikings fans are befuddled by the inconsistencies of Viking receivers in the last two years. Troy Williamson cannot be Randy Moss, and it was painful for Vikings fans to learn this from Williamson's mediocre performance with the Vikings thus far.
The Vikings are hoping to inject some hope at the position for this season by drafting three receivers in April including second-round pick Sidney Rice. The Vikings will look for Rice to possibly step into the number one receiver spot in the pecking order. Otherwise, Mike Wobschall of Vikings.com reports five-year veteran Bobby Wade looked great at mini-camp over the weekend. Wade was signed by the Vikings in the offseason after spending time with the Chicago Bears and the Tennessee Titans. Williamson is still a likely candidate for a starting job come September as he worked out with the first team during mini-camp and probably will through training camp.
Overall, the Vikings have 13 receivers on their roster right now to choose from. Let's hope they make the right choices in hopes of returning their receiving corps to half of the potency of the Randy Moss heyday.
Quarterbacks Under Pressure to Perform
By Vikingstickets.com (05/31/2007 12:59 PM)
There is a lot of talk in the Minnesota Vikings camp about the great set of rookies they drafted and even some talk about what a few view to be an even smarter group of undrafted rookie free agents. The Vikings hope their rookies are able to contribute right away to the team's success, but many Viking fans are forgetting about who is going to lead the team at quarterback. An unproven starting quarterback doesn't have the luxury to underachieve during the first couple of games because the pressure is all on the QB to lead the team. If the team doesn't win, the brunt of the blame lands on the quarterback.
As of now, Tarvaris Jackson and Brooks Bollinger are competing for the starting quarterback job for the Vikings, and both are relatively unproven. Whoever gets the starting job (right now head coach Brad Childress seems to be leaning toward Jackson), will surely feel the pressure to perform during the first couple of starts. Most likely, the starter out of the gate will be on a short leash if he doesn't play solid. Childress will probably keep his quarterback's risky throw percentage down, as he probably wants to see what top rookie Adrian Peterson can do in the ground attack.
Frazier Priming Up his Linebacker Corps
By VikingsTickets.com (05/30/2007 01:01 PM)
New Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier has his hands full at the linebacker position, as he has moved E.J. Henderson to the middle linebacker position to fill the void left by Napoleon Harris. Frazier said that the position requires more leadership ability on the part of the player because the middle linebacker sets up the huddle and makes the calls and adjustments.
"It's a lot more responsibility than he had when he was an outside linebacker when Napoleon (Harris) handled that," Frazier said in an interview for the Vikings website. "It's a little bit different in that regard, but he is handling it and he is handling it well." Leslie Frazier also has to make room for the Vikings first round pick from last year Chad Greenway, as he is coming back from surgery and hopes to contribute by covering speedy tight-ends or by doubling slot-receivers. He could also be a good spy for scrambling quarterbacks like the Atlanta Falcons' Michael Vick. The Vikings play the Falcons on September 9 in their season and home opener. Vick has a history of tearing up the Vikings defense with his legs. Buy Vikings Tickets now and be there live to see the action!
Adrian Peterson is Cleared to Play
By VikingsTickets.com (05/18/2007 02:12 PM)
Vikings draft pick Adrian Peterson will not need to undergo collar bone surgery. Peterson broke his collarbone in a game against Iowa State on October 14th. He missed the final seven games of the regular season before returning to play in the Fiesta Bowl against Boise State. The collarbone was broken again early in the bowl game on a tackle in the backfield, but Peterson played through the pain and did not report the injury until an examination on January 30th, Vikings trainer Eric Sugarman said.
Despite the health questions that surrounded Adrian Peterson on draft day, the Minnesota Vikings football franchise simply couldn't pass up the chance to add a player with his game-breaking skills. "We felt very confident it would be a non-issue," Vikings vice president of player personnel Rick Spielman said. Let's hope the Minnesota Viking front office is right and that Adrian Peterson will be a force to be reckoned with right out of the shoot. Let's go Vikings!
Vikings Regular Season Opener
By VikingsTickets.com (05/16/2007 01:11 PM)
The Minnesota Vikings 2007 Season is creeping up quickly. The regular season opener is Sunday, September 9th at the Hubert H Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis. The Vikings will host Michael Vick and the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons have a new head coach, as former Louisville Head Coach Bobby Petrino was hired to replace Jim Mora, Jr. The Minnesota Vikings definitely hold a grudge against the dirty birds after they knocked us out of the playoffs.
Overall, Atlanta has the edge over the Vikings beating Minnesota 14 times in the past 22 contests, but the Minnesota Vikings won't go down without a fight. Brad Childress needs to show Vikings fans that he can lead a team to victory and winning the home opener at the Metrodome would be the perfect opportunity. Atlanta has not visited the Metrodome since 2002, when they defeated the Vikings 30-24 in overtime. The 2007 Vikings game promises to be just as exciting so order your Vikings tickets now!

VIKINGS SIGN FREE AGENTS
By VikingsTickets.com (04/26/2007 09:42 AM)
This may be the off-season for Minnesota Vikings players, but the Vikings front office really never gets an off-season as they negotiate contracts and dream up NFL draft strategies on a daily basis. On Tuesday, the Minnesota Vikings signed restricted free agents Running Back Artose Pinner and Guard Anthony Herrera. Both players have starting experience with the Vikings and have contributed to the Vikings numbers.
Artose Pinner, 5' 10", tied a Vikings record with three rushing touchdowns playing against his old Detroit teammates at Ford Field in 2006 and set a career-high with 125 rushing yards in the game. Anthony Herrera, 6' 2", started six games at left guard in 2005 with the Vikings and has worked his way from a rookie free agent to a valuable and versatile lineman who can play all three interior line positions. Vikings fans should look forward to both Artose Pinner and Anthony Herrera making regular contributions in 2007.
VIKINGS 2007 SCHEDULE
By VikingsTickets.com (04/11/2007 02:58 PM)
The 2007 schedule for the Minnesota Vikings was released by the National Football League today. The Vikings schedule features a Monday night game at home against the defending NFC Champion Chicago Bears and seven games against 2006 playoff teams. One of the best parts of the schedule is that the Vikings will open the season up at the HHH Metrodome. This should be an exciting year Vikings fans, order your Vikings tickets now!
The NFL has announced the dates for this season's Minnesota Vikings Home Pre-Season Games. The Vikings play host to the St. Louis Rams and the Dallas Cowboys. Those two teams are generally decent draws at the Metrodome which should help the Minnesota Vikings continue their streak of sell-outs. The only problem is that both games are weekday games which makes it hard for fans from out of state to make the games. The best news of all is that tickets to these games are usually super inexpensive and you can generally get in for around $10/Ticket. Not bad for an NFL game. SKOL VIKINGS!!!
