U.S. Bank Stadium is a fixed-roof stadium located in the Downtown East section of Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, on the former site of Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. U.S. Bank Stadium serves as the home of the Minnesota Vikings of the National Football League (NFL). The Vikings played at the Metrodome from 1982 until its closure in 2013 and before that at Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington, Minnesota from 1961 to 1981.
The Chicago Bears shifted to Memorial Stadium at the University of Illinois when Soldier Field was renovated in 2002. The new $1 billion Vikings stadium is expected to open in 2016. The Gophers and the Vikings shared the Metrodome until TCF Bank Stadium opened in 2009.
