This weekend, the Minnesota Vikings are traveling to London to take on the Cleveland Browns, which means fans of the Purple are treated to a special 8:30AM kickoff this Sunday. Isn’t that the best? It’s like Christmas morning for football fans, except instead of opening presents, you get to roll out of bed and watch Minnesota lay the smackdown on Cleveland (most likely). No complaints on my end!

If you plan on heading out to watch the game somewhere, here are 5 bars in Rochester that will be opening early for some Vikings shenanigans.

Both locations will be open at 8AM and will feature a free hot dog bar.
