MINNEAPOLIS -- With the border battle of the Vikings and Packers looming this weekend we thought we'd start the tailgating a little early by taking a tour of a Vikings-themed RV that's fit for an episode of "Cribs."

The owner, Jon Perreault, has been working on the 1976 Winnebago Brave for ten years. It has custom leather seats, granite counter tops, a fire place, signed memorabilia and a bathroom that wouldn't make Packers fans very happy.

He also has a complete enclosed tailgating tent on the outside and Vikings horns on the front. Perrault typically has a group of 200 people to tailgate with. He brings in a DJ, a caterer and has activities like bean bags and beer pong.

Perreault is a true Vikings fan. He hasn't missed a home game in 17 years and even met his wife at a game seven years ago.
