MINNEAPOLIS (AP) The Minnesota Vikings will allow Wells Fargo to keep certain signs near the team's new stadium in downtown Minneapolis.
The Star Tribune (http://strib.mn/2cXJSNT ) reports a mostly confidential settlement was filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court to a legal dispute involving office-tower rooftop signs near U.S. Bank Stadium.
Under the settlement, the team allowed Wells Fargo to keep elevated - but not illuminated - signs on the rooftops of two office buildings next to the stadium.
Attorneys for the Vikings had labeled the signs a giant ''photo bomb'' of aerial images of the new $1.1 billion stadium. In June, U.S. District Judge Donovan Frank gave Wells Fargo 30 days to remove the elevated signs.
Vikings vice president Lester Bagley and a Wells Fargo spokesman both call the resolution ''in the best interests of both parties.''
