Hoping to capitalize on next week’s National Football League draft — and with still more seats to sell in their new stadium — the Vikings have unveiled even more seating options.
The team introduced a seating section in its $1 billion stadium Wednesday that will be known as Club Purple, complete with sofa-type seating and 4K-resolution televisions aimed at attracting fantasy football fans.
“We’re thinking that Club Purple will be the most technologically advanced space in the building,” said Jason Gonella of Van Wagner Team & Venue Services, which is helping the Vikings with ticket sales.
“You might have [an electronic] ticker that runs around the space that would have fantasy statistics,” he said.
