Since the roof of the Metrodome fell through, maybe its time to build a new stadium. One that, perhaps, could bring in some serious revenue to the state of Minnesota. Some people say it's a waste of tax payer’s money that can be spent on more important things which might be true. But, a stadium that could bring revenue to the state and allow our Vikings to play in Minnesota would probably be a win altogether. And, if we don't build a stadium, we could possibly lose the team all together. As a fan, I would like to keep the Vikings and, let's face it, the Metrodome has seen it's days and is one of the least attractive stadiums in the league. I think we should have built a Vikings stadium first, before building the gophers one. The longer we stand around wondering what to do the more the price of building a stadium will go up. It's now or pretty much never. 50 years from now the nay Sayers will be arguing the same point, "that we could use the money on more important things" or "Now is not the time". Will there ever be a right time to build a new stadium, or is it always going to be just a waste of money. We're going to have to build a stadium sometime. For some, a Vikings team is important to them. There part of Minnesota history whether you like it or not and we should at least give them a place to stay that they can be proud of. Let's keep our Minnesota history.
