OT: Metrodome Roof Collapses

[JayMKE]

i wonder if they could just take the roof off the metrodome? I suppose there would be trouble the lights and sound system

It would be kind of ironic if this helped to get a new stadium built.

Imagine the disaster if this happened during the game. Mario Manningham could be going up for a deep ball in the secondary and seconds later would have been covered in snow. Imagine the announcer call on that too lol.

"Deep ball to Manningham...ohh the roof collapsed!"

It would have killed everybody in its path. I bet tons of people would have been trampled to death, too.

It was on the field and you could see it buckling for a long-time. Doubt anyone would've been hurt. If it collapsed in the stands, that's another story.

Well, the game had already been postponed due to concerns, so it's moot. All I'm saying is if that thing had gone during a game, dozens of people would have been killed, maybe hundreds. Put 50,000+ people under one roof and then yell fire and see what happens.
