The Minnesota Vikings have again managed to avoid a TV blackout.
WCCO-TV and Miller Brewing are buying up the remaining 2,000 tickets for Sunday's game against Oakland. That ensures the sellout the team needs for the game to air on local television.
This is the third home game that's required corporate help to buy unsold tickets. The Vikings are off to a 3-6 start.
