US Bank Stadium Minneapolis, MN. View from the top deck during the last Minnesota Vikings football game - looking out over 62,000 fans. The Vikings win 38/10 against da'Bears - Skol!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
US Bank Stadium opened on July 22, 2016 costing a little over $1B to build. It has a fixed translucent roof and the worlds largest pivoting doors that provide a nice view of downtown Minneapolis and will swing open (in good weather) to let in some fresh air (plus a bird or two). The Stadium will host next years Supper Bowl LII on February 4, 2018 prompting the marketing campaign #BoldNorth.
During this game, a small group of protesters managed to sneak in ropes, climb up a ceiling truss, and hang a banner demanding US Bank to stop supporting the Dakota Access Pipeline energy project. You can see the white banner in the middle left of this picture. Security had to remove people who were seated underneath them in case they fell :O. If you zoom in, you can see one of the protesters silhouette on top of the banner. The climbers dangled on ropes until the end of the game and then were given a escort out to the local jail.
