Shooting for the NY Times at the Metrodome


I haven't written about Sports since I covered women's soccer at the Junior Olympics in Minnesota in 1988 (or something like that) and I haven't shot it since college. But happenstance and coincidence, the great friends of the freelance, delivered an assignment from the New York Times Sports page to shoot the switchover of the Metrodome from football field to baseball diamond in 12 hours. (The Vikings beat the Packers on Monday Night Football, and the Twins have a sudden death playoff with the Tigers today). I was at the Dome until nearly 2 a.m., and I was up editing and writing captions until 4 a.m. A fun night.
