Well, hey there VIKINGS FANS! We have been waiting for this day for many many years.. or at least since the Metrodome collapsed! We're sure you've already heard it, the new Vikings stadium has been announced, and we have all the details for you.
The main thing I came away from the new stadium is: glass. The roof will not open and close, however half of it will be see-through. There will be five (yes, five) 95 foot high retractable doors on the west side that will open to connect the building to a public plaza and that will highlight views of the downtown Minneapolis skyline. Pretty!
Personally, I don't know how I feel about the whole Vikings Stadium because they are using $500 million in public money for the stadium. However, being a Vikings fan, I think this will be great and help get fans to the games! And this stadium is apparently going to cost $975 total. The team hopes to begin play in the new stadium by the 2016 season.
