I'm sure that if that was possible Danny would have started working on it years ago. But, I'm no engineer, maybe it is possible.

Personally, I would hate going to a football game in a domed stadium, even if the weather does suck. I feel like it would take away from the experience of going to the game. Even more so, I could NEVER imagine going to a baseball game indoors, that would be terrible, IMO.

Think about how loud that stadium would get? 100,000+ ENCLOSED! are you serious.

The negatives really are just that we have a new stadium already. I'm down with building a new stadium.

If we lived in a world where the fans could name it, what should it be? Joe Gibbs stadium perhaps? Obvious, but I can't think of a better name. Too bad we're all capitalists.

it'd be major, super expensive and it'd close the stadium down. the current plan is an inflatable dome that can be put up for a MUCH MUCH lower cost (like a hundred million less )
