VIKES OWNERS MEET, EXPRESS FRUSTRATION OVER STADIUM ISSUE
Published November 5, 1997
The Vikings' ownership group met during their monthly
Board of Dir meeting yesterday, but afterward team President
Roger Headrick expressed only "his frustration with his
inability to present the team's case for a new stadium" to
Gov. Arne Carlson, according to Don Banks of the Minneapolis
STAR TRIBUNE. Headrick, who has said that the team needs a
new stadium and that renovations to the Metrodome "won't
work," requested a meeting with Carlson late last week, but
the Governor "reiterated" that the Vikings' needs are
"secondary" until the Twins stadium talks are completed
(STAR TRIBUNE, 11/5). In St. Paul, Jeff Seidel reports that
Philip Maas, one of the Vikings' 10 principal owners, said
the board agreed that Headrick would be the team's only
representative to the media (ST. PAUL STAR TRIBUNE, 11/5).
