Sunday Night Football is coming to the Twin Cities, as the Vikings take on the Giants at TCF Bank Stadium. But to capture some images around the Twin Cities, and to build up even more excitement for the game, the Sunday Night Football Bus -- an interactive, fan-friendly man cave on wheels -- will be making a stop in St. Paul on Christmas Eve Day.

WHAT: Sunday Night Football Bus. The SNF bus is an interactive experience for fans showcasing matchup game balls, game jerseys in mock lockers, a photobomb wall and a replica Football Night in America desk providing lots of photo opportunities.

WHEN: Thursday, Dec. 24, 2015 from noon to 3 p.m.

WHERE: Wells Fargo WinterSkate, next to Landmark Center and Rice Park in St. Paul.

WHY: Sunday Night Football matchup between the New York Giants and the Minnesota Vikings. The SNF bus arrives in each city two to three days prior to the game, making stops at local landmarks and events before heading to the game site.

WHO: First 100 fans wearing Vikings gear can rent skates for free with $2 rentals after the first 100 until 3 p.m.
