Gopher vs. Badger Tickets Loosen Up

This Saturday's game at the Metrodome between the Gopher Football Team and the Wisconsin Badger Football Team has lost a lot of its early season luster. The Wisconsin Badgers started the season with national title hopes while the Minnesota Gophers saw an opportunity to improve with the head coaching change. Neither of those pre-season aspirations have come true. The Gopher Football Team is limping into this weekend's match at the HHH Metrodome with a 1-9 record and the Wisconsin Badger Football Team has a respectable yet disappointing 8-3 record.

Both of those factors have lead to an abundance of Minnesota vs. Wisconsin Badger Tickets being available. The University of Minnesota still has nose bleed seats available for this game at $60/Ticket. If you are more interested in sitting in seats where you can actually see, excellent seats can be had for as little as $69/Ticket form any number of online ticket sites. Not bad for a game where Gopher Football Tickets historically sell for at least double that price for comparable seats.

David Beckham visits the Metrodome

The biggest “thing” to hit the Metrodome in awhile was the arrival of David Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy to take on the Minnesota Thunder soccer team. Thousands of fans went to the Metrodome to see David Beckham do something exciting. He gave them what they wanted when he lofted a pass to Edson Buddle from 30 yards out, hitting Buddle in the chest and setting him up for an easy goal. It was the Galaxy's only regulation goal in a 1-1. The Galaxy went on to beat the USL's Minnesota Thunder in a shootout. Soccer has a definite following in the Twin Ciites, it’s not as big as football or hockey, but with there were plenty of fans at the Metrodome to see an exhibition soccer game, perhaps more fans than are at an NBA Timberwolves game these days.

SI.com Ranks NFL Stadiums

Sports Illustrated recently ranked the "Fan Experience" of all 32 NFL stadiums. The Metrodome ranked 31st out of 32 venues. The only stadium that ranked below the HHHMetrodome was Giant Stadium in New Jersey. I have never claimed that the Metrodome is the perfect place to watch a sporting event and I am not an expert on NFL stadiums but I have had plenty of good times at the dome. Who can forget the 1998 Vikings Season, the Minnesota Twins World Series runs or most recently Adrian Peterson's record breaking performance? All of those GREAT events took place at the Metrodome.

Here is the most critical excerpt from the story:

The "stadium was built under budget and it shows" in the scarcity of "style, fan comfort and amenities." Seats, "many [of which] have poor or obstructed visibility," are "tiny" and offer "very little leg room." Concourses are "painfully narrow" and "too crowded." "Too few bathrooms" force fans to stand in "lines that reach deep into the concourse" to use "trough-style urinals [in the men's rooms]." And the "PA system is unintelligible."

Unfortunately, I can't argue with any of the their complaints. After reading this, it is no wonder that the Minnesota Vikings are having a hard time selling Vikings Tickets!
