    Looks like the roof is slanted, probably so it can slide off instead of building up?

      It was specifically designed that way to stop the snow from piling up on the roof. Better have a big area on the other side that's keeps the fans away otherwise there will be a rare avalanche story in Minneapolis.

          Adrian Peterson carried to the game in Week 11.

          Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

              its different, but thats not always a bad thing

              lots of windows, i like that. the more natural light the better

              does it only have seats on 3 sides? that would be kind of dumb

                      As you should Brandon.

                      After seeing the inside pics I gotta wonder how loud this thing is gonna get. Maybe it will have some special design like Seattle's that amplifies the sound. Likely it will be loud as fuck. Also looks like it could host a SB.

                        I've heard they're trying to attract an MLS team to Minnesota with this as well and so the fans sit very close to the field as in soccer. That should make it loud. No way it could be louder than that giant diaper they used to play in though. It wasn't just the noise, it was the terrible acoustics that made it an echo chamber for all the high-pitched sobbing of their fanbase.

                          Let's get real. Who's going to want to go to freaking Minneapolis in February for any reason whatsoever?

                            I can't run no more
                            With that lawless crowd
                            While the killers in high places
                            Say their prayers out loud
                            But they've summoned, they've summoned up

                              It's probably just luck, but I'll bet a slanty roof does stop snow from piling up.
