On Saturday, the Minnesota Vikings boarded their plane for their trip to Green Bay, Wisconsin to face the Packers, but much like the Vikings season, it did not go exactly as planned.
The landing almost ended terribly, as their plane skidded off the runway and into the grass.
While taxiing after a safe landing, the team plane slid off the runway and became stuck. We are waiting patiently to exit the plane.

Vikings radio host Paul Allen live tweeted the entire four hour delay which forced the Vikings to be stranded on the plane.
His first tweet was sheer panic, as anyone else would:
Bring food. And water. And blankets. Just in case. #Trapped https://t.co/9EyJm2OE7F

Next, Allen turned his attention to his co-workers:
Send help now!!! @wobby passed out w/ fear we never will deplane. I’m concerned for him. #Begging #VikingsTrapped pic.twitter.com/GVq3FOPyo0

Next, Allen wondered what exactly they’ll do for food as they stayed stranded:
OMG! @nacholeber eyeballing players. he’s hungry. #Vikings security scurrying to protect Linval so Ben doesn’t savage him. #VikingsTrapped

But nothing tops this:
We have run out of toilet paper so, of course, are using Packers media guides to handle business. #VikingsTrapped
