Soapbox alert.
The proposed Vikings stadium in Arden Hills is a bad idea. It makes complete sense for Zygmunt Wilf to think otherwise, because it’s a more attractive real estate investment than the Metrodome site. There’s no reason for us, the general public, even Vikings fans more specifically, to agree with him.
Reason 1: The main selling point they’re using to fans is tailgating, which is an inspired way to package the team owning 21,000 surface parking spaces that would be used 10 times/year, and getting $5,000,000 a year from them. From listening to the local sports talk radio stations over the past day, I can say that this talking point has worked like a charm.
Hope the state sees the Vikings & Arden Hills’ plan for what it is and puts a stop to it.
