The Minnesota Vikings took on the San Francisco 49ers inside of U.S. Bank Stadium Sunday, and Vikings superfans left it all on the field with their outfits. Many showed their take on the classic Viking, and others put horns on a beer box.

Steinarr Elmerson of Crosby, Minn., has lived as a Viking for 23 years after dropping out of corporate America, but this is the first year he's made an outfit specifically for football season.

Others traveled from far and wide — Orlando, Fla., the Bay Area, Fargo, N.D., and Barnum, Minn.

Photographer Evan Frost went and took portraits of the best-dressed fans at the game and found one thing (almost) all of them could get behind: Skol!
