God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel, found him, resting on the seventh day.
He inquired, “Where have you been?”God smiled deeply and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, “Look, Michael. Look what I’ve made.”
Archangel Michael looked puzzled, and said, “What is it?”
“It’s a planet,” replied God, and I’ve put life on it. I’m going to call it Earth and it’s going to be a place to test Balance.”
“Balance?” inquired Michael, “I’m still confused.”
God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth. “For example, northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern Europe is going to be poor. Over here I’ve placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people. Balance in all things.”
God continued pointing to different countries. “This one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice.”
The Archangel , impressed by God’s work, then pointed to a land area and said, “What’s that one?”
“That’s Wisconsin, the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful rivers and streams, lakes, forests, and hills. The people from Wisconsin are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and producers of good things. They will have a football team, wearing green & gold, wholly owned by the people and champions shall come from here!”
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, “But what about balance, God? You said there would be balance.”
God smiled, “I will create Minnesota , wait till you see the clowns I put there. They will also field a football team to provide entertainment, they will wear purple and play in a domed stadium.”
Michael inquisitively asked, “Why a domed stadium?”
God chuckled and said, “Because Michael,…even I can’t bear to watch them play football.”

Here is a link that shows pictures of the new design. No retractable roof. Part of the roof is supposed to be transparent panels to let natural light in, and the ends are supposed to have big panels that pivot to let in the outside air.
Hope the link works. i have never posted one before.

January 25, 2014 at 11:30 am #1382982Why wouldn’t they make a retractable roof? seems to be a big selling point for the brewers stadium. MN DOES get some nice days during football season believe it or not.

Because Ziggy doesn’t want to pay for it and you live in Iowa.
