The 2022 NFL regular season doesn’t begin for about four months, but Minnesota Vikings fans can get a taste of football fandom well before that.
It’s one big Friday night party called Viking Legends Tailgate Party, presented by Tailgate Spices.
Former Vikings players — five of them — will be in attendance, including Byron Chamberlain, Robert Griffith, Bryant McKinnie, Robert Tate, and Chester Taylor. Organized by Skol Marketing, an appropriately named collaborator for the event, you’re encouraged to “Hang out, enjoy great tailgate food and play in a bags tournament with the players.”

The event will occur in Hopkins, Minnesota, on Friday, June 17th, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm CST at 805 Mainstreet.
Other festivities include tailgate games, raffles for prizes, and, of course, food and drink. The party is family-friendly and open to everyone. Among the prizes listed on the event page:
- 1 Autographed Griffith/McKinnie/Taylor/Chamberlain/Tate print
- 1 Raffle ticket for prize drawings
- Unlimited pictures and fun with the guys
- Unlimited food and drink
- Tailgate games and activities
- Bags tournament with the players (entry limited and sign up at event)
Chamberlain, Griffith, McKinnie, Tate, and Taylor played a combined 28 seasons for the Vikings, spanning a total of 408 games. So, the party is packed with purple oomph.
