Damn. I've been there numerous times, see it in pictures, video etc. Its gorgeous to watch a game there. When the doors are open and the sun is shining, its a special place to root on the Vikings. And the new turf looks more like real grass than previous versions.

It's a perfect 62 degrees this morning on top if it with low humidity. I'm sure the doors will be open - it got hot in their last week vs SF with the doors open!
I gave up one of my tix today so another one of our season tix group could bring her sister. We've had 4 tix for literally decades now.
Wish I was there, I traded Hou to get an extra Lion tix. I'm noticing more/different food vendors popping-up every year in the concourses. Just adds to the fun.

I was there for a game in 2016 and for one in 2017. Totally awesome experience.

Wow, those are perfect football days outside the stadium. Wish I were there. I think my first ever game at the Bank was against Houston.

I absolutely love our stadium. It's so beautiful. I love the architecture and artistry of it. So many great memories have been made there. The thoughtful and creativity of the design is second to none

One thing I find hilarious and its like this at most college and NFL stadiums: the visitors locker room is shit compared to the home team, lol. I've seen the interviews with a few players from the Texans after the game and its like a white, plain locker room from 1970s Russia. LMAO.

I dont know what they expect, I do see from this picture that apparently the Vikings do no provide a chair for the visiting players as it seems the puke had to bring their own.

I would imagine most teams dont put much into the visiting locker room due to them likely getting trashed when the visiting team loses badly.

I've not been to U.S. Bank, just got caught up in life, but I'm putting it on my bucket list.
