For the Minnesota Star Tribune
October 7, 2016 at 7:00PM

Vikings fans gathered at Brunswick Zone XL in Brooklyn Park to raise funds for Strikes for Kids — and to mingle with the Minnesota Vikings defensive backfield. Cornerback Xavier Rhodes, the host, was joined by safeties Harrison Smith and Andrew Sendejo, among others. In addition to getting photographed with players, attendees bowled a few rounds and bid on NFL memorabilia donated to the silent auction. All proceeds go to the Strikes for Kids scholarship program, which provides awards of $250 to $1,000 to deserving college freshmen in the Twin Cities.
