What is in store for the future of the HHH Metrodome?

No one can really say for sure, though many Minnesota Baseball and Football fans are hopeful that the Twin Cities sports mecca will remain untouched. The HHH Metrodome holds more memories for some Twin Cities natives than their grade schools do, the HHH Metrodome housed championship Minnesota Twins teams and Minnesota Vikings teams. Minnesota sporting greats, like Kerby Puckett called the HHH Metrodome home, and many sports fans are just not quite ready to let that go.

However, certain realities about the HHH Metrodome need to be faced, without the revenue of both the Minnesota Twins and the Minnesota Vikings, changes will have to be made. It is not the most ideal football stadium and if the Vikings are going to continue to call the HHH Metrodome home, changes will have to be made.

My guess is BEST case scenario the HHH Metrodome will undergo MAJOR MAJOR changes in the upcoming Minnesota Vikings Seasons and the Vikings will continue to play home games at the Dome. More likely in my opinion is that the Dome will be torn down and the Vikings will play at TCF Bank Stadium for a few seasons while a new Vikings Stadium is built where the Dome was.

For now it is all speculation, but feel free to throw your 2 cents in too... I'd love to hear what other Dome Lovers are thinking!

I think we will be seeing a new Vikings Stadium where the Dome is within a few seasons...
