Someone made a video of the roof getting crushed by snow:
Saw this, OWNED comes to mind.
This happened a few times when I lived there back in the day when the Dome was new.
pam oliver is a fucking ugly piece of shit and i wish she would stop covering football along with most every other female sideline reporter.
holy shit, that looked fake at first.
Rumor is Brett was up there poking holes earlier in the day
with his dick, while taking pics of it
The sound when the snow hit the field is awesome. The Sportscaster dude had a nice pocket square too.
you racist?
the one erin whateverherlastnameis for espn is fuckinghotisfuck.
and the video looks computer generated
It was a local Buffalo company that installed the roof back in the day, and apparently they told them last year the roof was going to need to be replaced or fixed up. But they opted to wait because it was going to cost them a lot of cash.
There’s also been talk of a new stadium for the Vikings for a little while now…I wouldn’t be surprised in thinking they thought they’d be in a new stadium before something like this happened.
It was a 20 year roof on it’s 28th year.
Jay, where did you read that info? I haven’t run across that in my searches…
theyre also supposed to deflate the roof during snowstorms, but they didnt.
it kind of seems like they wanted this to happen
Deflate the roof? Isn’t it a covered metal structure? Saying “deflate” implies that it is help up by air pressure.
Where did you hear this? I grew up in MN and not once heard of this…
How much sense does it make to deflate the roof into a concave shape…seems like a big bowl holding snow would create more of an issue.
Maybe he’s thinking of Golf domes…
