Happened one other time in the early 80's I guess, so I'm guessing they can fix it :D

I was just going to start a thread about this!! O well... This sucks! They say that the game might be at TCF statium or it wont be till at least Wed till the Metrodome is able to be played at.

Wow, that is crazy!

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

Yeah, I remember that when I was a kid. We use to get snow like this all the time back then. I miss those days...snowmobile right from our lawn to the trail.

It collapsed on my birthday in 1983, and has collapsed again only 2.5 weeks after my son was born. Guess those Carlson boy genes are a bit too much for Minnesota to handle.

Well, I say they peel it off. Then they have their open air stadium they always wanted. haha

I had tickets to this game. I guess we are getting a refund. Dammit. First vikings game ive gone to and it gets cancelled. lame.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

holy snaps. first time i've seen in my life time.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

The game has been moved to Detroit, tomorrow at 6:00 cental. Lame!

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

We also had tickets as well but got them for way less than face value, so I guess I'll make a few bucks on the refund and watch the Packers play on FOX instead?

They should schedule a snocross race quick.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

Holy crap, I thought it was just a few panels.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

Wonder how much that will be to fix and how long it will take. No heat in there for a while.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

they just just tear down the whole building and start building the new stadium. Reschedule the rest of the games for TCF. I mean shit, why purchase a new dome when its just a waste of money anyways.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

I wouldn't like to see any money go toward a new stadium for a shit team.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

I wouldn't call them a shit team. Not as magical as last year, but far from shit.

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

I saw on the news the roof has failed 3 other times. They can put new panels or a patch over the 3 failed pieces and they are good to go.

Like it or not, I'm thinking this is going to fuel a huge push for just that...

Re: Metrodome Roof Colapses from too much snow!
 

Stupid they're playing in Detroit, personally I think it would make more sense for them to just play in the Giants' stadium.

Free tickets though! Anyone making the trip?
