So, having been in the Metrodome makes you an expert about the Carrier Dome?

That's like saying that a visit to the Carousel Mall makes one an expert about the Mall of America.

I've actually been to both domes. The roof material is similar... that's about it.

If 33 years is antiquated, what does that say about 1920s Williams Arena?  Yes, I realize that it's been renovated recently. The Carrier Dome has had some improvements over the years as well.

Air conditioning would be nice for two games per year. TCF doesn't have air conditioning either. :) (just seeing if you're awake)

Separate 30,000+ seat facilities at one private school? That will probably not happen. At some point when the Carrier Dome's land is needed for academic purposes and the Dome needs to be replaced, we hope for a new domed stadium on south campus. It would incorporate the latest & greatest as well as incorporate all that's been learned from the current facility. A retractable would be nice, but likely too expensive.

At this point, an open air football stadium in Syracuse is equivalent to program suicide. If you have a domed stadium, you might as well use it for hoops and other sports as well.
