26CornerBlitz Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 http://www.vikings.com/stadium/new-stadium/ Come on Buffalo, step into the 21st Century with a new downtown retractable domed stadium. The Ralph is outdated and makes it harder for the Bills to compete.
mrags Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 gotta say, that looks really cool from the inside yeah. Pretty sweet. Looks like its not a dome.
The Big Cat Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Haha, you do recall when the ROOF COLLAPSED in Minnesota, right? I agree that the Bills are due. But the Vikings were over due.
May Day 10 Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 yeah. Pretty sweet. Looks like its not a dome. Im not a big indoors guy, but I could get behind that.

Wing Man Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) This is the result of at least a half decade of blackmail from Vikings ownership to either build or kiss the team goodbye. Better to build a modern facility first than be under the gun by new owners. Edited May 14, 2013 by Wing Man
White Linen Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 That does look pretty amazing. Winning will be the catapult to the Bills getting or not getting a stadium.
KD in CA Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Yup, let's toss another billion dollars onto the NYS taxpayers' tab. What the hell, I don't live there!
San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Let's cut to the chase here. The Bills aren't gonna build one so it comes down to whether we want government (our tax dollars) footing the nearly $1 billion tab.
judman Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 I think it is pretty sweet. The outside looks like a ship in one shot, nice touch. I hope that glass tints b/c it could be a hot house in the early season.

Homey D. Clown Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is with all the military code in this thread???!???
mitchmurraydowntown Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 If we had glass like that, it's be full of salt / stains & snow. It would remind me of my bedroom window as a kid, which is alright.

metzelaars_lives Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 It's very state of the art and very nice, but I'm sorry, I just can't get on board with an indoor football stadium. It will be very bittersweet the day I have to walk into the new Bills stadium on a crisp 47 degree fall day and sit in an air-conditioned dome all afternoon. Yes that would mean the Bills are in Buffalo to stay, but man, that's just not the way it's meant to be. Call me a relic, call me what you will. Say I'm old-fashioned, say I'm over the hill, but that's just the way I am.
MarkyMannn Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Call me a relic, call me what you will. Say I'm old-fashioned, say I'm over the hill, but that's just the way I am. Even Bob Seger sits in a dome in Detroit A dome and a competitive team and I would buy seasons. Outside and a crappy team and I'm staying home
shibuya Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 The NFL will put some money into the kitty. but the fact is we either build a new stadium or just say goodbye to the Bills. No new owner is going to stay at the Ralph. that is fact. It has to be indoor retractable roof styled stadium, if not your wasting your time. A few of you might not want it but I guarantee the majority would, and it is the wiser overall move.
