Meeting Recap - August 30, 2016

The was no Rotary meeting today because we took a field trip to tour the new US Bank Stadium. Gerry Tietz had arranged a motor coach to hold all 53 tour participants and box lunches to eat on the way to the stadium. As we arrived, those who had not seen the stadium up close were impressed by how big the stadium is. The stadium seems huge on the inside as well, with large, open concourses and great views of the field. It's amazing what a billion dollars will get you. Our tour included a look at several private suites and clubs, the press box, and even the players locker room and showers. We were also able to spend some on the playing field, causing some of us to wonder what it would be like to play in a stadium of this size.
