A contract dispute usually happening between players wearing NFL jerseys and NFL teams happened between a team and its landlord, this week, in Minnesota. The Vikings angrily received a plan of extending lease from landlord, even after they told the latter they did not accept it.
The landlord, The Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission, received a scathing letter from the Vikings denouncing the plan of extending lease, but they still passed it Thursday to the team to offer a two-year extension on the lease. It calls for the Vikings to get revenue from any postseason games at the Metrodome, but it also threatens to reinstate a $4 million annual rent if the team does not sign the extension.
As the only major tenant left in the stadium, Vikings have been working with the commission to develop a plan for a new stadium on the Metrodome site. They said the landlord sent the wrong message to those who want to keep the team in the state of Minnesota. But the commission said their plan is just one step of accomplishing the goal of building a new stadium.
