MINNEAPOLIS – Shanola Hampton acts for a living, but there was nothing pretend about her passion prior to the Cowboys game Thursday night.
“To be this close right now, I’m freaking out about –” Hampton said before interrupting herself as Stefon Diggs caught a pregame pass across the field. “That was Diggs, did you see him? That was Diggs!”
Hampton, who plays Veronica Fisher on the television series Shameless, is a native of South Carolina but is a self-proclaimed sold-out Vikings fan.
As an individual who has a passion for theater, Hampton finds herself drawn to narratives.
