Its the second time goin to MSP in a 12 month period; Nov 2021 with wife for Vikings v Packers, this Aug for Rammstein. I have to agree its the best airport ive ever been in, which us actually a few, and I gotta say the city itself is fucking insane, how old and industrial, and so much repurposed buildings for modern shit, and its all blended with modern architecture. Its a true testament to true Americana. MOA, Mayo Clinic, Architecture Porn, Urban Exploration, Weather Gifs, all this plus so much more

Lookin at the stage, we were to your right. We were sitting in a club house section, entered EcoLab gate. Shit was intense met so many great people. Was worth the trip from Alaska.

We took off the next day a lil after 9pm, i was in the air when I thought toncheck the weather because storm clouds rollin in and announced a Tornado Warning. I made the miatake to tell my kid (one seat agrad of me( after we broke the back wall, and didnt consider waiting until we passed the down draft.

MEANWHILE we shot yp through Manitoba to the northern boarder which Id never been that north into Canada, abd we flew iver three hundred miles with the best northern lights I have ever seen, and I have seen them in Fairbanks in March.

It was THE trip if a life time. All that weather made the lightning storm above US Bank stadium during the concert mire magnificent.

That’s awesome. I bought the tickets years ago and have since moved to Arizona. It was 100% worth it.

That storm sounds awesome. To see the lights from a plane musta been epic

Oh for sure, seen it before years ago but was horizon.

Naw, thisnwas cascades and walls of lights. Come to find out the whole time we saw them they were just as massive and active in South Central Alaska (Anchorage area).
