(Joe Sneve / *The Dakota Scout*) Sioux Falls had its own version of “Monday Night Football” this week with a legendary NFL kicker’s visits to South Dakota that doubled as a political assist for his kid sister. Rapid City native Adam Vinatieri received induction into the South Dakota Sports Hall of Fame this weekend, earning recognition for both collegiate and professional accolades as a football player.
