Vikings Stadium Bill Passes The House
The Vikings Stadium bill passed the Minnesota House 73-58 in a floor vote Monday night. Debate on the Vikings stadium started shortly after 2pm and continued until the vote at 10:30pm. The bill changed with an amendment that added financial responsibility for the Vikings and reduced the financial responsibility for the state. In this amendment the state would share in revenue from naming rights while in the previous plan the Vikings would have received 100% of the revenue from naming rights. The Vikings in this amendment would also be responsible for any stadium cost overruns.

Vikings Stadium Deal Needs To Get Done

The sticking point is how and who will pay for the $131 Million in costs for road improvements around the stadium site. The stadium cost is $1.2 Billion so why would $131 Million keep a deal from getting done? It shouldn't.

The Minnesota State Legislature will now decide if the Vikings will get a new stadium this year. I have been in favor of the Vikings Stadium in Arden Hills for lots of reasons.
