My Roof is Finally Fixed

The roof of the Metrodome was finally fixed today!

It's been seven long months, but the roof of the Metrodome was finally fixed Wednesday. The roof went up way faster than expected. You know what this means.

The Vikings are one step closer to playing games this year. Sure, the NFL Lockout still needs to be resolved, but at least the Vikings have somewhere to play when the lockout ends. Thank goodness, I was worried there for a second.

And it's still funny to think that when it initially happened that people thought that they were going to be able to play in the Dome only 6 days later. Yeah right!

Metrodome Will Take 5-6 Months To Repair

The new head of the Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission said Thursday that replacing the snow-damaged roof of the Metrodome would likely take five to six months, raising the possibility of affecting next season's schedule for the Minnesota Vikings. This definitely signifies that the team NEEDS a new stadium. Five to six months to fix the metrodome could possibily spill into August, which would then affect the Vikings preseason. It isn't looking good for the Metrodome and hopefully this will speed up the process for a new stadium.
