Default Who gets the Dome?
Quote:
A potential schedule conflict with the Twins could force the Vikings to move their Oct. 8 game against Detroit, but Vikings officials apparently are considering whether to challenge an agreement that gives the Twins priority in the Metrodome.
The conflict would arise if the Twins win the American League Central Division, giving them home-field advantage in the division series. Game 5 of the division series, if necessary, would be Oct. 8 -- the same day the Vikings and Lions are scheduled to play.

The Twins' lease with the Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission always has given them postseason scheduling priority, but that agreement expired after the 2004 season. Since then, the Twins have been operating under the same terms without a written agreement.
