Went to Viking's training camp today. What a nice facility. We didn't go inside any buildings so I'm strictly talking about the outside. There were many booths giving away things as well as booths where you could purchase items. It was very hot today and there is few places for shade. There was a little shade in the stands were they had the activities set up. They had a field where they would time you with the 40 yard dash, you could try and kick a field goal, a quarter back area where you tried to hit a target, and a flag football area. This is a great place to take the kids, especially around 8 and over. Then we moved to their practice fields. Most of the stands don't have shade and the sun was hot today. There are two areas that are shaded and I believe that one is even air conditioned but I'm not sure. I didn't know about that area or I would have paid extra for the shade. They had free water stations so you could fill a water bottle and cooling stations. They have away free Johnny Pops too. I had never had one before and they were delicious. Better than a popsicle. Concession stands were open too. Tickets were only $10 a piece and I paid extra for handicapped parking. Would I go again? Absolutely, but now I know how to be better prepared.
