Gink said he wanted to resign in Miami, but Miami wasn't interested. Their loss.

Riding with Van Ginkel

By: Rob Kleifeld

The Van Ginkels sure know how to bring it on game days.
Andrew, the impressively humble, long-haired son of Rock Valley, Iowa, parties with sacks, tackles for losses and pick sixes, and generates national acclaim — not that he's the least bit interested by fame.

His wife Sam's specialty is embraced by a smaller cohort of Andrew fans, many of them journeying from their hometown of 4,000 on weekends when Minnesota hosts unlucky prey at U.S. Bank Stadium.

She coordinates a 55-person group (give or take a few each game) consisting of immediate and extended family, friends, and old coaches and classmates. Multiple generations of support rendezvous at 9 a.m. outside of the Van Ginkel home in Eden Prairie for high noon kickoffs, load onto a motorcoach and transform it into a party bus for the 40-ish minute ride featuring "Sam Shots" and the Vikings fight song.
