When Zygi Wilf recently purchased four blocks of down-town real estate from the Minneapolis Star-Trombone, one had to wonder if he had tailgating in mind. Since the Rapid Park lot closed this spring for construction of the new Twins stadium, we were getting a bit concerned about our tailgating situation. Fear not! the Vikings just announced that all four lots will be open for tailgating starting with the first regular season game against Atlanta on September 9th. Season parking passes are available at here. The Battle Wagon will be in the Purple 1 lot.
