Where in the World is Mrs. Fallon?

Steelers at the Dome in Minneapolis

Saturday dawned bright and beautiful, except that my husband pulled out his back.  After a quick emergency trip to Dr. Olson, the Fallons were off to Minneapolis .  It seemed like a short drive and the weather was exceptional.  We arrived, checked into our hotel and immediately went to the stadium.  I was trying to remember if I had every seen a game in a dome before.  I think that when we went to see the Montreal Expos when I was but a lass, I was thinking they had a dome....time does funny things to one's memory!  We donned our black and gold and headed to the Stadium.  We were amazed to find the Vikings stadium surrounded by a sea of black and gold.  It was like an invasion of some sort.  We hung out on the plaza, got a bite to eat, and much to our surprise ran into another group of Randolph Steelers' Fans.  There were 63k fans, so who would have thought that it were possible?  Amazing...

Inside we saw the teams warming up.  They seemed so far away, but there was no box around them.  They were right there... a stone's throw away.  The game began and neither team seemed to be showing their best efforts, but with only 5 seconds left in the game, our field goal pushed us ahead to victory!  Victorious, we made our way back to the hotel with visions of SuperBowls dancing in our heads!
