Eagles fans who donated to the Vikings Foundation after Philadelphia defeated Minnesota in the NFC Championship Game received a special gift this week.

As a token of appreciation, the Vikings sent a jar of confetti from the night the Eagles won Super Bowl LII at U.S. Bank Stadium along with a thank-you note to the charitable fans.

"Your positive attitude and great sportsmanship toward the Minnesota Vikings did not go unnoticed or unappreciated," the note reads. "Thank You and SKOL!"

Vikings spokesman Jeff Anderson told ESPN's Darren Rovell the foundation came up with the confetti idea at the last minute. Roughly 24 Eagles fans received the gift.

"We just felt it would be a nice gesture to some classy fans," Anderson said.
