I mages of a grand slam homerun, the roar of a crowd, and the excitement generated by a winning touchdown were accepted parts of the fun. The place for this action was Met Stadium. The Met, home of professional sports in Bloomington, was the site of many parties and get-togethers. However, plans for a new downtown stadium left an uncertain future for the many aspects of sports entertainment at the Met. Tailgating was a favorite activity among students. Showing up just for the party was not uncommon, as students enjoyed free parking facilities and ample space for their grills and occasional keggers. Frisbees, footballs, and baseball gloves were also frequent sights. The activity was not limited to the parking lot. The Kicks, Twins, and Vikings games supplied enough action to keep the Jags coming back throughout all seasons. The continuous action made the outing well worth the prices ranging from the $3.75 Kicks, and $5.00 Twins, to the $12.00 Vikings tickets. Another side to the Met was the number of student jobs available. A large number of Jaguars found employment vending peanuts, frosty malts, and programs.
