In Packer Nation on the north side of Madison, Wis., someone isn't a good sport.

Thieves took it as an invitation to pillage Jan. 7 when they saw a Minnesota Vikings fan proudly displaying a purple mailbox in support of the rival team, police said in a report.

It was the second time thieves decided the 56-year-old Minnesota fan's mailbox had to go. The first time, a $600 plastic mailbox in the shape of a Vikings helmet was stolen outside the home at the end of December.

The Madison Police Department, which interviewed the female victim, noted as part of a report on the incident: "It was already not a great year for the Madison-based Vikings fans. Minnesota went 3 and 13. Their team mailed it in, and now they are at a loss to fly the colors to put mail in."
