Vikings announce “Winter Whiteout” for Christmas Eve

The Minnesota Vikings are well known for their purple jerseys. It has been a staple of the team since it’s inception in 1961. On Christmas Eve, the Vikings will be trying something different.

Akin to what Penn State does every season, the Vikings announced that they will do their first-ever winter whiteout where they ask the fans to wear nothing but white to create a special atmosphere.

If you have never seen what Happy Valley looks and feels like during its whiteout games, it’s a special experience. The Minnesota Golden Gophers were the opponent in their whiteout game this season and it was an electric atmosphere.

Vikings fans, let’s create something special on Christmas Eve.
