LITTLE FALLS, Minn. (AP) – Minnesota Vikings Pro Bowl tight end Kyle Rudolph recently spent some time up close with dairy cows at a central Minnesota farm in preparation for the Farm Bowl.

The St. Cloud Times reports that the Feb. 1 event at the University of Minnesota will have current and former NFL players face off against Land O’Lakes farmers in farm-themed challenges. The Farm Bowl is a Land O’Lakes promotional event tied to the Super Bowl. Rudolph spent an afternoon learning about modern farming technologies at Ron Miller’s Enchanted Dairy in Little Falls.

He says he visited the farm in order to prepare for the Farm Bowl. He was joined by former Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Greg Jennings and Jason Brown. Super Bowl LII will be held Feb. 4 at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.
