Eagles fans unhappy with the treatment the Minnesota Vikings received in Philadelphia on Sunday are donating to the Mike Zimmer Foundation as a way to say sorry.

The foundation, which was started by Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer in honor of his late wife, Vikki, announced Tuesday it has received a flood of donations since the NFC Championship Game.

Eagles fans were filmed screaming and throwing objects at a Vikings team bus as it was leaving Lincoln Financial Field.

Vikings fans interviewed by Minneapolis TV station KARE11 also described seeing hats being thrown in urinals and other "random acts of violence" during the game.
