While I love the location, I'm uncertain of the logistics. The Minneapolis Convention Center is more than a mile away from the new skyway-connected Vikings stadium site. That's a really long round-trip if the plan is to follow the St. Louis model, and put playing fields in a stadium, and 800 pits in convention area space.

On the other hand, the drive teams might love navigating their carts though the crowded Mpls skyway system during the business day. It'd be like that scene in the "Mighty Ducks" movie, only with robots instead of rollerblades.
