The Vikings play their final game in the Metrodome this weekend and demolition of the structure is set to begin soon to make way for the new stadium. When it's finally gone, will Minnesotans miss the Dome?

Andy Sturdevant, urban explorer and author, joins The Daily Circuit to talk about what the Dome means to Minnesotans. His latest book, "Potluck Supper with Meeting to Follow," includes essays about the Metrodome.

The Metrodome isn't the only thing in the neighborhood that piqued Sturdevant interest. He set out on a walking tour around the Dome to see what history lay hidden in the surface parking lots and old buildings that make up this rather deserted section of Minneapolis.
