It was chilly and overcast and glorious. Oh, and there was football practice too.
Severe weather hit Mankato on Thursday night leaving the practice fields soggy and clouds overhead on Friday morning when the Minnesota Vikings took the field for practice. In a schedule change, the team decided to have practice with pads in the morning and the walk-thru in the afternoon. Probably in the interest of getting the guys rested up for Sunday's game.
Despite the change in practice, there were plenty of fans in the stands to watch the practice. Seems to be the usual this year at camp because one of the team PR people told me that there have been more fans than usual at camp, maybe because training camp started a week earlier than usual.
