How to follow the MINNESOTA VIKINGS from out of market

You didn't stop being a Vikings fan when you left Minnesota. Minnesota's coverage just stopped following you. Here's how displaced Vikings fans watch the games, hear the Minnesota call and keep every Vikings story, from anywhere.

The Vikings beat you left behind

Start here, because this is the half no streaming package sells you. On an ordinary Tuesday in Minnesota, the Vikings story is being worked by Star Tribune, Pioneer Press, KARE 11 and KSTP 5. Add the club's own newsroom at vikings.com and that is 5 separate mastheads filing on one team, most of them on days when nothing has officially happened.

None of it was built for you. It was built for the people who still live in Minnesota, which is why moving away quietly costs you the practice report, the Friday injury designation and the beat writer's read on why the NFC North game actually turned. Vurvo puts every one of those sources, plus the Vikings podcasts and YouTube shows, into one free feed, in purple and gold.

How to watch Vikings games out of market

The national windows follow you anywhere: Thursday, Sunday and Monday night, plus any Vikings game flexed into a national slot. What you lose by moving is the ordinary Sunday afternoon game that only clears the Minnesota market. NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube and YouTube TV is the out-of-market answer to exactly that, which for a displaced fan means most of the Vikings schedule, the NFC North dates against the Bears, Lions and Packers included. RedZone rides along on Sundays, NFL+ adds out-of-market preseason, and Game Pass on DAZN covers you outside the US. Rights packages move season to season, so check the current lineup before you buy.

Or watch with other Vikings fans

The other answer to a Sunday away from Minnesota is a room full of people dressed in purple and gold. Most big cities have one bar that has quietly become the Vikings bar, and displaced fans find each other there long before they find each other anywhere else. Go For GameDay searches by team and ZIP nationwide; Watch Party Radar lists them city by city:

Neither directory is ours and neither covers every town. If yours is missing, the Vikings supporters' groups are the fastest way in: they booked the bar, usually years before any directory noticed.

Hearing the Minnesota call from another state

The national TV crew is not the crew you grew up on. NFL+ carries live game audio for every game, Vikings home call included, from anywhere in the US, and the Minnesota flagship usually streams its own broadcast through the club's app on game day where local rights allow. Radio in one ear, muted TV feed in the other, the way Minnesota has always done it.

Following the Vikings between Sundays

Out of market mostly means late. The trade breaks on a Minnesota station you cannot pick up, and you hear about it three hours behind the people you would normally argue with. Vurvo pushes Vikings news the moment any of those 5 sources files it, tracks every game live play by play, and keeps the NFC North race in front of you, in purple and gold, whatever time zone you ended up in.

Displaced Vikings fan FAQ

Which Minnesota outlets still cover the Vikings every day?

Star Tribune, Pioneer Press, KARE 11 and KSTP 5, plus the club's own newsroom at vikings.com. That is 5 separate mastheads on one team, and not one of them publishes to the place you moved to. Vurvo pulls all of them into a single Vikings feed.

How can I watch Vikings games if I don't live in Minnesota?

The national windows air everywhere. For the Sunday-afternoon Vikings games that only clear the Minnesota market, NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube and YouTube TV carries the out-of-market feed, which for a displaced fan covers most of the schedule including the NFC North dates against the Bears, Lions and Packers.

How can I hear the Vikings radio call from another state?

NFL+ carries live game audio for every game, Vikings home call included, from anywhere in the US. The Minnesota flagship also streams its own broadcast through the club's app on game day where local rights allow, so you are not stuck with the national crew.
