Minnesota Vikings guard Anthony Herrera, who was born in Trinidad and Tobago, was sworn in as a United States citizen on March 26. But he almost didn't get to his swearing-in ceremony, and he needed Vikings coach Brad Childress to lead him there.

Mark Craig of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that when Herrera told Childress that he needed to leave the team's practice facility so he could go to the ceremony, Childress invited himself to come along. Herrera led the way, but they took a wrong turn, so Childress called an audible:
"We got lost," Childress said. "I knew Anthony had messed something up when we pulled into this neighborhood and he turned around. We were sitting there when I decided to plug the directions into my Navigator. A different route came up, so I said, 'OK, you follow me.' "
