Minnesota Vikings fans don’t need a great memory to recall when the roof of the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome collapsed. It forced the team to move one of their home games to Detroit during the 2010 NFL season and made the Vikings the laughing stock of the NFL for a while.
Now, with a new state-of-the-art stadium ready for the team when the 2016 season kicks off, Minnesota is ready for football, but are they ready for the intense snowfalls that the Minneapolis area can get?
According to an article on the WCCO Minneapolis CBS website, the new roof not only withstood its first big snowstorm of the year, but everything for the drainage and removal of snow from the roof worked properly.
