AND IT WILL BE AN OPEN AIR FACILITY FOR WAY LESS MONEY! GO VIKINGS!

Huh? Didnt you just report the deal was not going to happen because of cost of rebuilding roads?

Open air stadium and a gravel road and parking lot is fine with me! Costs around 35% less

LAME!

The infrastructure and land clean up costs are to open ended. Even without those costs its still more than building it in Minneapolis. Then what do you do with the dome?

This would be a joke. Why should the public invest in a facility the couldnt be used much of the time. This would be a huge waste. If any Ramsey County Board member votes for this and raises my taxes for it, they will be gone. If they want the stadium there tax the heck out of them. They can make up for it in ticket fees.

This is hideous. Arden Hills??? Give me a break.

Health insurance for everyone? Can't afford it. Fix the potholes? We're getting there. Extending unemployment for those out of work? Forget it. Tax money for Zigi Wilf? No problem! Tax breaks for people like Zigi? Sure! Occupy two nations and fight a third? We got the cash! America is nuts.
