miller park in milwaukee

^^^^^^If they want to do anything to reduce the heat stroke but keep the natural aspect of the game, I cant argue with a well designed retractable stadium. Hell, if the 800,000 people in brewcity can aford it for baseball games, I dont see how the ever-growing cards fanbase cant make it happen.

I know it's hot in the summer, but for God's sake does Arizona really need a roof?

Does anyone here actually enjoy watching football indoors, whether on TV or live?

air conditioning/rain

Yes, it's definetly needed. At the beggining of the season it's way too hot. It's more comfortable going to a game when there's a roof. The baseball stadium has one too and people here like Arena Football so yes they enjoy football with a roof. The team will be better and if it's not 115 degrees more people will go.

True, and major props to Bidwill for getting the grass part right.

I guess the Cards facility is more of a multipurpose facility for the greater Phoenix area more than just a football stadium. But let's face it, in January they won't need that roof to host a Super Bowl.

I just generally hate any kind of football played indoors without the elements. It's got a manufactured feel to the game that simply isn't needed.

Have you ever lived in Phx/Tucson?

I can get down right hot still in Oct/Nov and especially if the sun is beating down on you
