Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome
Minnesota Twins
The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome was a unique and much-debated venue — a cavernous air-supported dome where the Minnesota Twins won two World Series championships (1987 and 1991). The deafening crowd noise, created by acoustics that trapped sound, made it a genuine home-field advantage.
