Message: [QUOTE="billorange44, post: 3047079, member: 644"] The Dome is usually hot and stuffy in September. So sometimes we suffer through two games. I'll take that compared to a September rain storm with no roof overhead. Taking kids to the Dome is OK if that's what you want to do, but remember, they are kids and they do what kids do at games. They need to pee and they want food. That's a given. The food at the Dome is what it is. I would never buy the nachos. The cheese on them looks like what they paint a school bus with. The hot dogs are at least Hoffmans. Still, I don't often buy them. I will tell you this though, on a hot humid day in the Dome, there is nothing better than a cookiewich. Also, beer is available!!! If you ask me, the pee troughs are a work of art in urination. I have never had to wait very long, even at half time. Tailgating is tailgating. Food, booze, and friends at the back of a car. It is no different no matter where you go. I see no need to pull up with a restaurant size smoker like they do down south. Besides, you have to put all that stuff away and go home. I tailgate at Manley. After a game, usually from the time I leave the Dome to the time I am on 81 north heading home is 30 minutes, give or take a minute or two. As far as the stadiums are concerned, Notre Dame Stadium looks like the outside of a factory that was built in the 1890's. Penn State's looks like an unfinished construction site. I have to admit, the outside of the Dome is what it is and it reminds me of concrete buildings in Warsaw, Poland that were built by the communists and I have seen many of those. All in all, I think the Dome is a pretty unique venue. It has no bad seats. Sure, it would be nice to have the roof open in September, but that comes with a price that I will mention now. Every open air stadium and I mean all of them have problems with bees drawn by spilled soda, beer or whatever. I have never ever seen a bee inside the Carrier Dome. [/QUOTE]
