The Minnesota Vikings are one win away from clinching a spot in the Super Bowl and plenty of their fans made the trip to Philadelphia in hopes of giving their team a little extra advantage on Sunday night.

Although the game is the second of two games on Sunday, Vikings fans have already started hitting the streets of Philadelphia to let the Eagles fans know they aren’t going down without a fight. Since the traveling Vikings fans wanted to make a point ahead of Sunday’s contest, they decided to takeover the famous Rocky Steps outside the Philadelphia Museum of Art and even gave the Rocky statue a little makeover.

They figured they would get the day started with a hearty Skol chant on the Rocky Steps and then gave the famous statue a Vikings makeover.

Eagles fans can deal with the Skol chant on the Rocky Steps, but putting Vikings colours on the Rocky statue is not going to be received very well by Eagles Nation.
