The wind is pretty smart. It may get confused initially but usually gets the last laugh. 


Wind confusion fail:

The new stadium is 90° offset from the current stadium angle to the west.

 

Are you familiar with Bernoulli's principle? It's essentially what allows planes to fly. While the "wind-confusing" skin on the stadium will reduce the breeze through the stadium, when that same wind hits the canopy and is pushed upward, it will reduce the pressure of the air below and could create a horizontal cyclone over the field. 

 

I assume that was considered in the design.

I went with my dad to see the stadium progress a bunch of times.  It was pretty cool.

20 years ago I knew a crew who ate a lot of asparagus and beer in the lot pregame and at halftime would all go to the head waters of the piss trough and release the asparapee to float down for everyone to enjoy.  Gross.
