They&#39;ve had plenty of time to find out whats wrong, hell they know whats wrong. Its on some digital file deep inside Levengoods cib pc will we be able to see it, never you won&#39;t be able to see it though binoculars in person it has all tucked away like a dollar at Red Garter. Some engineer is feverishly working on a fix probably as I type. This roof reminds me of one at our world famous airport over the escalators. It will take someone to get killed first before they really fix it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-49714520062922803142015-09-15T10:56:57.317-05:002015-09-15T10:56:57.317-05:00Paul Ogden is right about the roof staying closed but for the wrong reasons. The real reason is that the NFL wants a controlled environment for their games. That roof will never be opened again. Minnesota was smart just to build a dome without the fancy retractable roof. Houston has wanted to open their roof on numerous occassions and the league would not allow it. Something about humidity and oppressive temperatures that would have given the home team an unfair advantage. The NFL is a carefully scripted entertainment enterprise, sort of like pro rasslin&#39;. No thinking person wastes more than a few minutes a week on it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-69209127645304861872015-09-15T07:08:54.061-05:002015-09-15T07:08:54.061-05:00Then condemn the building, and play the games at IU.<br /><br />I&#39;d rather have the building destroyed than occupants killed.<br /><br />The roof is the least danger to occupants fully open.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-28002046446276064222015-09-15T04:11:36.718-05:002015-09-15T04:11:36.718-05:00Anon 7:47, they have to close the roof because if it rains it will cause substantial damage to the interior. I remember reading that the CIB could have spent something like $100,000 more to make the inside waterproof, so the roof could stay open even if raining. They didn&#39;t want to pay that amount which seems paltry compared to the price of the stadium.Paul K.

It should remain open indefinitely.<br /><br />Whoever closed it needs to be prosecuted for interfering with an ongoing engineering investigation. Who did close it?<br /><br />Is the City seeking indemnification from the builder?<br /><br />With the stadium now being second-rate and nonconforming, this gives the Colts grounds to break the lease and head for a larger city, like St. Louis, when the Rams head for Los Angeles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-16607109699039523422015-09-14T19:47:13.412-05:002015-09-14T19:47:13.412-05:00Time for a new stadium.
