More than 200 youngsters from around the Twin Cities took part in Minnesota Football's annual Youth Day Out at TCF Bank Stadium Thursday afternoon.

Warm temperatures and bright sunshine greeted the 9-to-14 year-old children who attended the free event. Youth Day Out was sponsored by University of Minnesota Athletics in conjunction with the Boys and Girls Club of the Twin Cities, the St. Paul Parks and Recreation Department, the Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Board and the YMCA. The Monitors Foundation and F. Clayton Tyler (Attorney at Law) provided transportation.

The youngsters took part in football drills on the TCF Bank Stadium turf with Gopher players, had the opportunity to meet head coach Jerry Kill, asked questions in a Q&A session with Gopher linebacker Mike Rallis and quarterback MarQueis Gray and took tours of the facilities at TCF Bank Stadium.

Photos and video from the event are posted below.
