Vikings Plane Skids into Grass After Landing at Appleton International Airport

There was a scary situation for the Minnesota Vikings with the team plane skidding off the runway at Appleton International Airport in Wisconsin on Friday.

Per ESPN.com's Ben Goessling, the plane slid into a patch of grass as it was taxiing after landing at the airport:

A league source said everyone on the plane is fine, but added that players, coaches and team officials had been stuck for about 2½ hours, and said the airport might need to use fire trucks to get players off the plane and safely off the runway.
