MINNEAPOLIS — The Legacy Gates to U.S. Bank Stadium — and a new Vikings era — are about to open.
With U.S. Bank Stadium scheduled to celebrate its ribbon cutting and grand opening on Friday, members of the Twin Cities media on Tuesday toured multiple signature spaces of the 1.75-million-square-foot facility from the Vikings locker room to the field and beyond.
“What an incredible journey it has been,” said Vikings Executive Vice President of Public Affairs and Stadium Development Lester Bagley, breezing through a 12-year process at the legislature, followed by nearly four years of design and construction to the approaching wind-in-the-sails moment.
