Viking is going to the Super Bowl!

Viking will be the MVP during these Super Bowl Weekend events in Miami:

·          CBS’s “The Early Show” is filming on the beach in Miami Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings.  They have created a kitchen set for cooking demos that includes a Viking range and two Viking grills.  Katie Lee (Joel) will do a demo Friday morning, and Guy Fieri will do a demo Saturday morning.  Tune in to “The Early Show” to check it out.

·          Mario Batali is hosting an exclusive “Super Brunch” charity event Saturday morning in Miami alongside Honorary Co-Chairmen Jimmy Buffett, Jimmy Fallon and Emeril Lagasse.  The event will feature cooking demos by Mario and Emeril on Viking equipment.

·         A special segment during Sunday’s Super Bowl pre-game coverage will highlight Drew Brees’ civic work in New Orleans, specifically the Edible Schoolyard. Viking provided the cooking equipment for this very special healthy eating program at Green Middle School in New Orleans.  The Edible Schoolyard program was founded by culinary legend Alice Waters and some of the filming for the Super Bowl pre-game segment took place in the kitchen at Green Middle School.

 Enjoy the game!
