A venue can completely change the sporting experience. Arenas and stadiums are being built bigger and better then ever and I'm going to compare the venues of the dakotas. Which state has the better sporting venues?

The Dakota Dome is a 10,000 seat multipurpose arena located in Vermillion SD on the campus of USD. It opened in 1979 at a cost of 7.9 million dollars, and is home to coyote football, basketball, and indoor track.

This debate is won by North Dakota. I've actually been to all the venues on this list, and its really not even very close. North Dakota has some pretty sweet facilities. The Engelstad arena is amazing. I'll admit that I'm not the biggest hockey fan, but going to a UND hockey game was one of the cooler things I've ever experienced, and the venue had a lot to do with that. Newman Field is pretty awesome too. It's like a mini major league park and its a great place to watch baseball. ND wins this debate and stay tuned for our next debat topic of the Dakotas.
