Can we finally put the need for a dome stadium to rest?

There have been 52 total Super bowls to date. And only three times has a dome team one. SB 34 with the Rams, SB41 with the Colts and SB 44 with the Saints. Needing a dome to have a championship team is a total farce. Domes are for people who cant handle a little weather now and then. I had a blast at the game today. It's minus 5 in Green Bay right now in a sold out Lambeau. Buffalo is getting soft.

I prefer a dome. With the $$$ I drop and will only go up with the new stadium. I want to see the best athletes on the field in the best conditions possible. That is entertaining. And that is what football is. Entertainment

I love pure sport in a dome. AND, I love a good snow game. I love football in WNY!

 

I WIN!

This.

 

that said, I don’t even think about it anymore.  It’s just not going to happen. Oh well.

Is this like the official thread to end all done threads?  You should make a poll.  I think it would seem more official if there were a 3 pronged poll.

 

I don’t think we’ve even gotten below sea level on this iceberg!

BS.

 

You saw today the great equalizer bad weather can be for both teams on the field much like the NE game. 

 

All teams should play under ideal weather conditions and that's what a dome would give. 

 

Many get so blitzed at games as a fan of course it means nothing. You're so warm from the booze. 

 

I want to watch my team play against another team, not the crappy weather!

The owners don't want a roof so it's a moot point.

 

We can post all the stats, arguments, and history that we want but the team does not want a dome and that isn't going to change. 

 

 

This is what “really” ends the Dome Debate. It is what the owners want. 
 

but no one will ever convince me for an open air stadium preference, just isn’t going to happen.

I moved down south to get away from the cold and snow. I typically come up for a game in September/October. Would love to come up for a playoff game especially in the comfort of a dome watching this super powered offense play without dealing with wind/ snow and all the other crap I don’t have to deal with anymore

So you left Buffalo but now demand Buffalo builds a dome for your convenience? Got it.

Yep I know sucks the Army doesn’t let you live in the location of your choosing.

Now tell me how much do you drop a year watching the Bills?

The three arguments for open air:

 

1) “ manly-man harsh conditions are for real men to watch, everyone else is weak”. I suppose?
 

2) “Other stadiums are open air and are fine”. Bogus. BUF is the worst weather in NFL, by almost every measure (wind, wet, cold). every player knows it affects their career negatively. 

3) Costly dome

Downstate NY Yankee stadium had $1.2B subsidy of $2,3B.  Suck it up kids, let’s get $$ for upstate for once!! Spans 50 yrs not a big deal.
