Vikings Super Bowl Bid Football.JPEG-0f0b2.jpg
US Bank CEO Richard Davis talks about Minnesota's bid for the 2018 Super Bowl on Wednesday, May 7, 2014 in Minneapolis. Davis co-chairs the bid committee. He says local corporations pledged enough to cover 75 percent of the estimated $30 million to $40 million in costs just within the first seven days of the drive. The co-chairs gave few details about their proposal to NFL owners, saying they don't want to give anything away to Indianapolis and New Orleans, the other cities competing for the game. Organizers will make their presentation to team owners May 20, and will learn that day whether they got the bid. (AP Photo/The Star Tribune, Elizabeth Flores) MANDATORY CREDIT; ST.
