The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome is a domed sports stadium in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The Metrodome is home to the following sports teams:
Construction on the Metrodome began on December 20, 1979 and was funded by the state of Minnesota. The dome is air-inflated and requires 250,000 cubic feet of air pressure per minute to keep it inflated. Three times in the stadium's history, heavy snows have caused a small puncture in the roof and caused it to deflate.
The 1985 MLB All Star Game, 1987, 1991 World Series, Super Bowl XXVI, the 1992 , 2001 NCAA Final Four were all held at the Metrodome.
The stadium is named after former mayor of Minneapolis, US Senator and US Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey.
