Minnesota Twins

(Hubert H. Humphrey) Metrodome -- Minneapolis, Minnesota --

---

Located in downtown Minneapolis, the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, or simply the Metrodome, has been home to the Minnesota Vikings of the NFL, and the Minnesota Twins of MLB since 1982.  In addition the “roller-dome” as served as home to the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers football team.

The Metrodome has hosted various other major events such as, Super Bowl XXVI, games in the 1987 and 1991 World Series, the 1985 MLB All-Star Game, and multiple NCAA Final Fours.  The Metrodome is the only venue to ever host a Super Bowl, World Series, Final Four, and MLB All-Star Game.  

If you are driving to the Metrodome,  it is located at the intersection of Interstate 94 and Interstate 35W in downtown Minneapolis.  Public transportation is also available as the Downtown East/Metrodome stop on the Hiawatha Line is located right next to The Metrodome.  Plus, bus service is available through the University of Minnesota.

The need for the Metrodome came to be when both the Vikings, and the Twins became dissatisfied with the Metropolitan Stadium.  The Metrodome opened in 1982 and is approaching its end of use by its tenants.  The Minnesota Twins will vacate the Metrodome in 2010 when their new stadium is completed.  The Vikings are currently in the works to get a new stadium deal, but nothing has been confirmed at this time.
