With this year’s Super Bowl being in Minnesota, it would be remiss if somehow, someway, a member of one of Minnesota’s teams that knows a thing or two about championships was not somehow unofficially part of the welcoming ceremony.
Not only does Lindsay Whalen know a thing or two about winning championships as she was been part of four WNBA championship teams as part of the Minnesota Lynx, but she is, of course, one of the Land of 10,000 Lakes’ favorite daughters.
The Lynx veteran and Minnesota Golden Gopher teased on her Twitter account that she will be part of an upcoming feature story done by Sarah Spain for ESPNW. While working on the story and the accompanying photo shoot, Whalen also had a chance to show off to Spain some of the Twin Cities’ notable eateries and hotspots – all while documenting them on social media, of course.

Some of the happenings were also documented by the Lynx’s official public relations Twitter as well…
