I've been saying for years that Minnesota needs to bring back outdoor stadiums.
For the Vikings, it would provide the same midwestern cold-weather edge which they enjoyed in the 70's and which Fat Bay still enjoys to this day
For the Twins, it could provide a good advantage when the temps start dropping in Sept/Oct, though I'm not sure how much it would be.
Alot of people seem to think the Twins will get a stadium in St.Paul. *Knock on Wood* that it finally happens.
I think once and if the Twins get a stadium. The Vikings will get one. Most likely the site in Anoka county.
The Gopher football program I can't see having as much difficulty as the pro teams have had.
