The NFL is back and on Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings hosted the Pittsburgh Steelers in the annual Hall of Fame Game which drew a remarkable 6.9 share rating, the highest rated program that night and the highest rated Sports program all year. In comparison, the Stanley Cup Finals Game 6 drew a 6.5, the NBA Eastern Conference Finals drew a 5.6 and Western drew a 5.4. The Indy 500 drew a measly 4.3.
The Vikings won the contest 14-3 but the Steelers hardly played any starters. Starters not playing included QB Ben Roethlisberger, RB Le’Veon Bell, and receivers Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant and Markus Wheaton.
The Vikings take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next weekend. Plenty of great seats and affordable tickets are still available so be sure to get yours today and help cheer on your Minnesota Vikings!
