Nearly 12,500 Fans Etch Their Names in Legacy Bricks; Fewer Than 1,000 Left

Since the Legacy Bricks program launched in March 2015, nearly 12,500 fans have purchased the commemorative markers that will occupy approximately 3,500 square feet on Medtronic Plaza at U.S. Bank Stadium. Because of the incredible interest, the Vikings and the Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority have added space for an additional 1,000 bricks before the program officially closes in the next month.

Last week, construction of the Legacy Ship, a 160-foot long ship located in the southwest corner of Medtronic Plaza and the home for the Legacy Bricks, began. Inspired by legendary Viking ships, the Legacy Ship will incorporate contemporary metals, stone, concrete and wood and will include landscaping, as well as theatrical lighting and sound.
