Hi! Newbie here! My wife and I are going to the Monday Night Vikings Packers game and was hoing someone could give us info on how to have the best experience when we are there, such as were to go before the game and how long before the game and just a general explanation of how things work before during and after the game. We have never been to a NFL game before. We are from Winnipeg, Canada. Thanks in advance for any info.

welcome fellow Canadian.

Pretty much, for a good time, the tailgating is always a blast.
I've never been myself, but its aparantly worth checking out.
Other members can fill you in with info on that.
There's also some activities going on immediately outside the dome, from contests and merchandise, etc.
During the game, it is generally acceptable to be standing the whole time, yelling, screaming and making a complete fool of yourself, nobody will judge (except maybe your wife, if she hasn't been to a game before).
Hassling the away fans is a plus, but within reason of course, you don't want to start a fight and be escorted out.
(and believe me, at a Vikings/Packers game, there will be TONNS of peckers fans)

Just out of curiosity, where are your seats?

Whatever you choose to do, you'll have a blast.

Valkommen and SKOL!

PPO will be having a tailgate party for all members of the site prior to the game.
It's a tad early for fleshing out the plans for that, so I would advise keeping your eye out here in the coming weeks for details.
