EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- The Minnesota Vikings are among a minority of NFL teams that still hold training camp away from their practice facility, and as they move through the final legislative steps before breaking ground on a new headquarters in Eagan, Minnesota, that's expected to include an 8,000-10,000 seat stadium, it's fair to wonder how many more years they will venture south to Mankato, Minnesota, for training camp.
The Vikings are scheduled to head back to Minnesota State for the 51st consecutive year next month, and their agreement with the school extends through the 2018 training camp.
