MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — A Minnesota House Committee is taking dramatic action to curb the use of luxury suites at U.S Bank Stadium.

That’s after a public outcry over the controversial use of those suites by friends and relatives of stadium commissioners.

An investigation by the Minnesota legislative auditor found that the Stadium Authority acted unethically — but not illegally– by giving free tickets to political friends and family members.

The Minnesota Sports Authority has apologized for its “friends and family plan,” and changed the policy.
