walked around the stadium a little this morning, that thing is huge

the viking ship they are putting in the plaza, the mast is up and the sail is going to be a giant video board - anyway the board is up too and its enormous. if you are standing in the right spot is nearly eclipses the stadium

It looks solid. I like that the skyway is getting closer to covering all of downtown minneapolis east to west. Next step is a skyway all the way to downtown st paul and i can ride my bike to work in the winter.
