Development

During redevelopment of a former horse ranch in an adjoining suburb in 2004, it was discovered that debris from razing Met Stadium had been illegally dumped on the site.

Picture

A picture would really improve this article. So if anyone has one please put it up.--Gephart 03:49, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting Fact

The Met was one of the few football stadiums where both teams stood on the same side of the field.

Do you have a reference so we could add it to the main page?--Gephart 23:29, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also the home of the Minnesota Kicks

Not sure how to add this fact to the bottom of the page correctly so that the formatting is the same, but it is certainly worth mentioning. SeanNovack (talk) 17:45, 14 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Other events

I tried to find some "other events" that occurred at the Met, but all I could find were a couple of concerts and some wrestling matches. If anyone can find a few more, like a political rally or a boxing match, that would be great to add. Delaywaves ^talk 04:24, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Questionable sentence in the article

"Since Bloomington was located halfway between Minneapolis and St. Paul, it was thought this would be the best location for a prospective Major League team."

I don't know what's meant by this sentence. Minneapolis and St. Paul are adjacent; there is no "between" them. Should probably be reworded as "Since Bloomington was located close to both Minneapolis and St. Paul..." or something similar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.6.94.76 (talk) 00:31, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
