MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Vikings have played 108 preseason, 421 regular-season and 21 postseason games in the state of Minnesota since they joined the NFL in 1961. Those 550 games have been played at six venues -- Metropolitan Stadium, Parade Stadium in Minneapolis, the University of Minnesota's Memorial Stadium, the Metrodome, TCF Bank Stadium and U.S. Bank Stadium -- and Anna Burge has not been in the building for a single one of them.
The native of Brownton, Minnesota, was content to watch her beloved Vikings at home, instead of making the 90-minute trip from her family's farm to the Twin Cities.
