I've been to games in that dome, I remember when it was being built, shame that happened, and Sunday football with the Vikings had to be postponed. I made a video right outside our place during the snow blizzard, and my California friends were amazed...our car got buried, and the wind was wild....creating these big snow drifts. I still don't have my usual parking space because the show plows made about a 30 foot tall mountain of snow where I use to park.
