The Vikings banking on the lottery
The Minnesota Vikings has found a very unique way to help pay for their new stadium. They are in a partnership with the Minnesota State Lottery and the NFL on a scratch off ticket with the Vikings theme and logo. The scratch off ticket is $10 and they have already made 12 million dollars which makes it one of the most successful lottery games in the state. They will use this money to help pay for the new stadium that could cost around $900 million dollars. The Vikings did a very good job about thinking of this idea and they are making a very good profit. Even though the money is not gonna cover a large chunk of the price, it is still money and any bit helps. I think that working with the lottery is a great idea and I believe other teams should do the same thing in order to make more money and help out the organization.
