The Metrodome is going to be gone soon and they're already talking about getting rid of the Georgia dome.

I don't think that the Metrodome - or Mall of America Dome or whatever it's actually called these days - is going to go anywhere. The Vikes might not be playing there, but I don't think they're just going to tear it down, since the Vikes' plan for a new stadium is in the adjacent county. It'll probably still be used for conventions and other sports related events even after the Vikes are gone. Of course I'm not sure about it, but I would think so.
