Funny, this same story was in the Wisconsin State Journal, except that story
reported that Wisconsin would pay the start-up costs. Wisconsin paying makes
more sense to me cuz a lot of the extra seats would probably be bought up by
cheeseheads making the trip to MN. It also stated that there may be a
problem with the refrigeration unit at the Met Center.
Another note...Wisconsin's Jamie Spencer has been named to the U.S. team that
will play in the Tampere (Finland) Cup aug. 18-21. Wisconsin All-American
Mike Eaves will coach the team. (Wisconsin State Journal)
