If you have an open stadium, you kinda have a responsibility.

I am not an architect but would a dome be able to handle having 3 feet of snow on top of it? I feel like that would be exceedingly heavy.

If it's light powdery snow, no problem

But if it's the wet slushy heavy snow different story.

Dolphins & Chiefs players could potentially freeze to death, including fans.
But it's snowing in Buffalo.....

There is a blizzard in Buffalo right now.

There is not a blizzard in KC.

Furthermore, 47 people died last year in Buffalo due to a blizzard, and the government got absolutely crucified for their response.

Emergency vehicles weren't able to get to people in time due to the weather, and 47 people freaking died. Last year.

I know this thread is full of macho guys talking about how great it was back in the day when everyone was tough and everyone ate lead paint for fun, but it is not that hard to comprehend why the game was postponed.

3 feet? They're calling for 12" in 48 hours. But maybe.

It would. Snow load is a huge issue for that part of the country, especially on a span as long as a stadium.

Yep.

But leave it to some of our fans to put their macho silliness on blast in this thread for all of us to see.

I posted the link to the live webcam in post #150. Just for the record, there is not a blizzard in Buffalo right now as I post this (or over an hour ago). Looks like a few inches of snow, clear streets, and cars proceeding as normal.

This could be the reason for some of the posts in this thread.
