NFL Star Adam Vinatieri to Headline Christine Erickson Campaign Kickoff
The National Football League’s all-time scoring leader and four time Super Bowl champion, Adam Vinatieri, will appear as a special guest in support of his sister, Sioux Falls mayoral candidate Christine Erickson, at her upcoming Campaign Kickoff fundraiser.
The event will be held at the home of Corey and Karen Brown in Sioux Falls on September 15th. Details about any public appearances featuring Vinatieri to be held in conjunction with the event are being finalized and will be announced soon.
“For years, Christine and my family have been there to support me throughout my football career,” said Vinatieri. “It’s my pleasure to return the favor as she campaigns to lead the city of Sioux Falls.”
Vinatieri, a native of Rapid City and graduate of South Dakota State University, was an NFL placekicker for 24 seasons with the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts.
He scored an NFL record 2,673 points and holds the records for most field goals made, most postseason points and most overtime field goals made. He is considered one of the greatest placekickers of all time.
Erickson announced her candidacy for Sioux Falls Mayor in July. She is currently the president of the South Dakota Auto Dealers Association and the South Dakota Trucking Association. Erickson has previously served as a member of the South Dakota House of Representatives and the Sioux Falls City Council.
