The Steelers and Vikings will travel to London, England to play in the 7th game of the NFL’s International Series. The Vikings will serve as the host team for the game played September 29, 2013 at Wembley Stadium. In 1983, the Minnesota Vikings and the St. Louis Cardinals played a preseason game at London’s Wembley Stadium in a game called the ‘Global Cup’. The Vikings beat the Cardinals 28-10 in what was the 1st American football game played at Wembley Stadium. The Vikings have also played in preseason games in Sweden (1988), Germany (1993) and Japan (1994). The international meeting marks the 17th contest between the two franchises, including Super Bowl IX in 1975. In their last meeting, Pittsburgh topped Minnesota 27-17 at Heinz Field in Week 7 of the 2009 season. Hey Sarah Stimpson, you gonna go see my home team?
