There are few things that can fire up a crowd more than a giant football player crushing a beer and on Friday night. T.J. Hockenson and the Minnesota Vikings tight ends were willing to oblige, slamming a few brews on the jumbotron during the Minnesota Wild's Game 3 win over the Dallas Stars.

Hockenson was joined by fellow tight ends Josh Oliver, Nick Muse and Johnny Mundt as the group deleted a few drinks during a break in the action on Friday night.

After fans responded with a SKOL chant, Hockenson continued to be a man of the people, buying drinks for everyone in his row and taking photos with fans throughout the night.

Hockenson's night may have not had the same intensity that Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari had while slamming a beer courtside during the Milwaukee Bucks' run to the NBA title in 2021, but it appears he had just as much fun. 

As the Wild look to advance to the second round for the first time since 2015, Hockenson and the rest of the Vikings may have to make a return trip to the Xcel Energy Center.
