Can't Wait for Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys October 17th

Dallas Cowboy Tight End Jason Witten Tackled By 2 Viking Players
Already looking forward to the NFL season? Well, that makes two of us. I can't wait to attend the Minnesota Vikings games at the Metrodome this season. The Minnesota Vikings will host the Miami Dolphins, Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys, Arizona Cardinals, Green Bay Packers, Buffalo Bills, New York Giants, and Chicago Bears at the Metrodome. The game I am most looking forward to is the game versus the Dallas Cowboys on October 17th. After destroying the Cowboys last season in the playoffs the Cowboys are going to look for some revenge. The Dallas Cowboys always come with a big target on their back as they are self-titled "America's Team." It always feels good when the Minnesota Vikings defeat the Dallas Cowboys.

Metrodome Light Rail Stop

The Light Rail with Metrodome behind
A convenient mode of transportation to the Metrodome is the Metrodome Light Rail Stop. It's a great way getting to and from the Metrodome in Downtown Minneapolis. The closest stop on Metro Transit Station for the Metrodome is the Downtown East/Metrodome on the Hiawatha Line. It is the fifth stop southbound. It is about 1 block from the Metrodome and is easily accessible. It's a great way to avoid parking and being stuck in traffic following a game. The stop before the Metrodome stop is Government Plaza and the one following it is Cedar-Riverside.

Metrodome Parking

The Metrodome in Minneapolis and the downtown skyline
Headed down to a Vikings Game? Not sure where to park? It's okay, it's something many fans experience. There are many options for parking for the Metrodome. Other than parking on site (the parking lot at the Metrodome), there are many ramps and surface lots that are privately owned. Most parking ramps and lots will charge anywhere from $15 to $30. The earlier you arrive, along with sometimes the further you park, tends to be cheaper since the lots closest will charge higher.

Will a Dome Dog be a Dome Dog without the Minnesota Twins at the Dome??

HHH Metrodome's famous Dome Dogs
A highlight of my summer has always been eating Dome Dogs at the HHH Metrodome. Let me just say, "I LOVE ME a Dome Dog." While normal people eat one Dome Dog and call it quits, I am all about the two-fisting... I like one Dome Dog with nothing on it and one Dome Dog with everything on it, gross I know that I can eat that much Dome Dog, but really I love them. However, I really only eat Dome Dogs during Twins season, never during Minnesota Vikings Games and I don't really know why. So my question to all of you is, is it a Dome Dog if the Minnesota Twins aren't there?

Mall of America Field hopes Brett Favre returns to Minnesota Vikings Roster

Brett Favre in the off season at home in Mississippi
Like most Minnesota Vikings fans, the Mall of America as a collective thing is waiting right along side with the rest of us to see if Brett Favre will come back for a second year on the Minnesota Vikings Roster. After an ankle injury late in the 2009 Minnesota Vikings Season required Favre to get surgery the status of the seasoned quarterback went into question.

While most Minnesota Vikings Fans are eager to have Brett Favre back, the Mall of America, sponsor of Mall of America Field at the HHH Metrodome, has a vested interest in getting our quarterback back. Sales on Vikings merchandise in several Mall of America stores went up considerably last season when Brett Favre, the NFL legend signed with the Minnesota Vikings.

The Mall of America and its stores could really use another boost in interest like the one Favre started last season. However, even though their name is on the field it seems like they are going to have to just sit and wait like the rest of us.
