[ML Football] Hamilton County looking at putting a dome over the Bengals stadium

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yes please
Please god no not in my glorious AFC North
I love when wind and inclement weather decides our most important games of the year. /s
Fuck this shit, AFC North football is blizzard ice bowl football
Dome means we can host a Super Bowl!
I understand the people that don’t want this for the sake of the hard-nosed AFC North standard and honestly I kind of feel the same way but I get it. This is the way all the stadiums in inclement weather areas are trending towards and for once maybe we won’t be the last ones to drag ourselves out of the stone age on a problem. Shows some forward thinking in my opinion and in the long run is probably a good idea.
As a fan who sits in outdoor stadiums I’m ok with a dome, but as a fan who couch watches fuck it keep it open!
A dome means a possible Superbowl and in general I don’t see why not.
If they do this I will buy season tickets. Fuck the cold.
I hate watching football in the cold. Do it!
As short staffed as the Bengals run, I really hope this isn’t a distraction.
I love having the view of the city in the background so I’m opposed to this, but I can understand why people want it so badly. Especially being in Ohio.
I’m an AFC north purist no dome. That said, I get why and if it actually gets Cincinnati more money (city) I’m good with it
Let’s get rid of the turf too, players want real grass
It’s a great idea.
I’m torn, lol. I see all the plus sides. There are many. I just like nature, lol.
I love afc north football and playing outside in the snow. But this is needed for the sake of global warming and the increasingly violent weather. Maybe like the Texas have, retractable?

I’m still pissed we have a practice bubble. FTS
Realistically, adding a dome to this stadium would require an effort not unlike what they just did to the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid. I’d bet that just building a dome would be cheaper.
Since the city needs an arena and a dome, is there any way to make a dual-use venue that could be used by the Cyclones and the Bengals? It might look a bit ridiculous on Cyclones gameday with so many empty seats but the reality is that the dome fulfills all of the requirements that the city would need in an arena anyways.
Why can’t domes be deconstructable? Like put the roof February through July and remove it for football season
For the what? Three or four games we would need it?
What about something like Sofi where it’s still open to the air but has a roof?
Strange title. Shouldn’t it say “One of Forbes richest Mike Brown” instead of “Hamilton County”? Oh wait taxpayers are going to pay for this aren’t they
Shit so my taxes going up huh? Lol
Man, I saw my first game this year and the view was awesome. Don’t know how I feel about this. How about they just have the taxpayers pay for Tee? lol
They saw what two Taylor Swift concerts did for the economy of downtown cincy. They want that all year round. Other big concerts, WWE, Super Bowl, etc…
spend money to get wayyy more money through offseason events at PBS. I’m in!
added bonus that the games won’t be decided by weather.
Cold weather football is the best. It rarely snows here on game days and when it does it’s a real treat. Stay home if you can’t handle it the one or two games we get where it’s freezing temps.
Hell no. Takes the weather out of football.
If your scared of the cold go move to Miami and be a dolphins fan
This didn’t go well in Chicago, no reason to think it would go better here
In my opinion having a dome changes the fan atmosphere and experience in a negative way. In my opinion it just doesn’t feel the same watching football indoors.
I went to the game in Detroit a couple years ago and I gotta say watching the game in a dome sucks. Doesn’t feel like football.
Keep it how it is
No. Football is an outdoor sport, keep it that way. Also quit wasting money on a franchise committed to mediocrity.
