Well we finally have our decision from the Minnesota Lawmakers. They have voted against the stadium bill. Now the Vikings are left without a place to play. The lease on the Metrodome ran out in February this year, they passed on signing a plan to move the team, all because Ziggy wanted to keep the Minnesota Vikings in Minnesota where they belong. They are committed to playing in the Dome for this season. If a stadium bill is not approved soon, we will not only loose the team, but the revenue it produces, and all the potential jobs that could have been created by building a new stadium. As for the lost revenue read this. Here are a few other tidbits about the Vikings and the revenue they bring in. There is also the family factor. How many of us gather each and every Sunday no matter if the Vikings win or loose to cheer them on and make it a family event. That one day a week when we all come together. These are memories that will never fail us, however if the lawmakers in our state don't vote yes for a new stadium we will all have to choose some other team to call our home team.
until next time....
