Good way for the Vikes to break in their new stadium with a 17-14 win over the Packers, if you are a Minnesota fan.
Seems the more expensive the stadium is, like all other amulets of wealth and fame, the more sports teams will build them to show off their wares, even if their wares are not worthy of the place.
Poem depicts this event well.

Thank you Brett. I detect a bit of cynicism.

A great poem about the football stars and their rivals through all the years. It seems like a super modern stadium. An excellent photo.

We have some marvellous sporting arenas here? We have stadia holding between 50,000 to 120,000 spectators, with a national population, our country is sportsmad. I think we've won something like 28 Davis cups. But great poem, written in abab rhyming quatrains, great looking stadium, we play grid iron here, in a minor way. Well done, blessings, Roy

It took me a while to get the hang of the rules here. You've done a pretty good job of following them! However, the heavy repetition is a bit intrusive and I don't see any way around that really. Not a form that I'll be trying! Kudos to you for making something of it though.

Thank you Tony. Too many echoes, I guess, can be annoying.
