The sooner they leave the better. We’ve been fighting these greedy SOB over stadiums for 2 generations now.

The Vikings play in the Stadium 8, 10 times if they make the playoffs and get home field advantage, per year. Yet, the Dome has been an average of 330 days a year for non football venues over the last 29 years. Seems to me that when the Stadium and the Vikings are gone, the state of Minn will be losing billions of tax dollars in revenue over the years to come.

Also, the Vikings make the least amount of money off the stadium then every professional Football and Baseball team in America. However, the state of Minn and the city of Minneapolis make an average of 100 times the amount of money the Viking s made. It will be the states loss.

Why do you think the city of Cleveland cried until they built and got a new team? Wake up, stadiums are big tax revenue entities and job producers for every state and city that has them. Again, you loss will be LA's gain.
