The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, known as The Dome, is the crappy stadium that, sadly, the Minnesota Vikings call home.
The roof of the Metrodome is air-supported. It requires 20, 90-horsepower industrial fans to pump it full of 250,000 feet of air a minute to keep the roof inflated. The roof is made up of two layers. The outer layer is very thin and is made of Teflon-coated fiberglass. The inner layer is made of fabric. There is lots of dead space between the two layers. This space contains the fans, that blast the space full of hot air to insulate the roof.
In the winter, the temperature of the roof-supporting air is turned up. This helps melt the heaps of snow that fall in Minnesota and builds up on the the roof… and as it turns out, it doesn't do that good of a job.
During the 2010 Minnesota Blizzard, well over 17 inches of snow fell in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. The record snowfall caused the roof of the Metrodome to collapse.

1. John was really hoping to be accepted into college but was metrodomed when he received his rejection letter.
2. The 2010 Minnesota Vikings were expecting to reach the NFC Title Game again but their hopes and dreams were metrodomed again and again all season.

Built in 1982 to house Minnesota sports teams the Minnesota Vikings, Twins, and University of Minnesota Golden Gophers, as well as various high school teams during high school play-offs, it has also hosted Superbowl XXVI, the 1987 and 1991 World Series and the NCAA Final Four in 1992 and 2001. Situated on the eastern side of downtown Minneapolis the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome when first constructed was considered state-of-the-art and was built in order to replace the aging Metropolitan Stadium, which was located in Bloomington, MN. The Metrodome is most recogized as the home of the NFL's Minnesota Vikings. Many record setting events have occurred in the Metrodome including Tony Dorsett's longest run from scrimmage against the Vikings in 1983, Brett Favre's record for touchdowns in 2007, Adrian Peterson's record of rushing yards in 2007 and Gus Frerotte's record 99 yard touchdown to Bernard Berrian in 2008; one of only a handful in NFL history. The Metrodome is the NFL's lowest income generating stadium and seats only about 64,111 seats. The dome's Teflon roof has deflated due to weather issues five times, most recently in December 2010 when the roof suffered catastrophic failure due to a severe blizzard which delivered 17 inches or more to the Minneapolis metro area. The incident was caught on video in dramatic fashion and forced the Vikings to move their "home" game against the Giants to Detroit's Ford Field the following Monday night.
