A cold beer next to an open flame is not ideal, unless you're tailgating in 20 below zero weather like Vikings fans on Sunday.
Brutal COLD: -18°/wind chill -35° & the only way to stay warm at the @Vikings tailgate is with propane heaters & a hot breakfast. #bacon pic.twitter.com/MugznPZtBf

Ahead of the team's game against the Colts, these fans used a fire to prevent their beer from freezing.
It's so COLD at the @Vikings tailgate in (-20°... wind chill -34°) that they're using fire to keep the beer from freezing. #greatwhitenorth pic.twitter.com/QjIEWgBO76

Fortunately, the Vikings' new stadium has a roof, so once the thirsty fans made it inside — no flame was required to keep their brew in liquid form.
