We have multiple venues that could hold parts of the championship event but they are all too far apart.
Minneapolis Convention Center (no stadium)
River Centre (Hockey arena is too small)
Metrodome (No space for pits)
I simply do not see a space for champs in Minneapolis, unless the new stadium is within range of the Minneapolis Convention Center.
