Mike in Horseheads Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 11 minutes ago, WotAGuy said: I had read long ago that most of the first level will not be covered; any seats covered will be from the section overhang above, not the canopy. My understanding is the canopy will be effective for the highest level seats. I think the dome stretches from the over hang to the other one when closed 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draconator Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Regarding the steel that's in place for the canopy. I think that's just the structural steel. The canopy will extend far beyond that, to where half of the lower bowl will be covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 The price is wild to me. Roof or no roof this stadium should be spectacular.
