After months of build up, the tear down is well under way inside and outside the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul. Crews are taking apart the stage and putting back the seating. The first event to be held there will be a Minnesota Wild game on September 24.

The national news crews have moved on too. Below are two videos. The first is from last night just after 7pmCT. It shows the FNC big screen outside the Fox Experience and panning toward the outside of the CNN Grill.

The second is from this afternoon around 2:30pmCT. The Fox big screen is down and the tent is being taken apart. And the CNN Grill is no more ‐ the neon is gone and it's quickly being turned back into the Eagle St. Grill.

...and after the jump, a short clip from yesterday as we got on the MSNBC platform during the 6pmCT hour.
