The video is pretty crazy

[Arnox]

Oh, shit.

That's not very good, is it?

[WebairGerard]

wow that is a ton of snow! crazy! Giants - Vikings game moved to Detroit on Monday.

[joefriday]

Holy Shit , the same thing happened in NZ a few months back.

[CYF]

well, we got like 20+ inches of snow here in Minneapolis.

I'm also from Minneapolis. Are you just a domains only guy?

nope I'm an affiliate for a couple of programs and I've got a couple of girls that want to model, just haven't had time to meet up with them yet.

[pamon]

awesome. been in that stadium twice. they should blow that stadium up and build the vikings a real stadium.

[DVTimes]

the roof just seems to be material so probably not a big deal.

[Davy]

Well, they obviously didn't build it with snow in mind.

I can't really relate since I've never lived where it snowed, but I know that even a few inches of rain can really make a difference. Pretty crazy stuff, I hope you are keeping warm!

[TurboAngel]

That's crazy.

[CaptainHowdy]

Where the fuck did all that water came from??

[alias]

Hell of a mess.

[CurrentlySober]

[Chezter]

Just saw it on tv, cool.

[PornGreen]

awesome video but what the hell was that roof made out of? it looked like a tent collapsing.

[HomerSimpson]

what a video...
sound of it is pretty amazing too...

[~Ray]

great video , already over 1.2 million views

[kristin]

Inflatable roof, wtf?

The Giants weren't able to get to the game either, the airport was closed - first time in 19 years.

Fucking crazy.

Another Minneapolis guy. Well, western suburbs anyways.

[ottopottomouse]

Not surprising really with snow being about 150kg per cubic metre.

[SGS]

Very lucky there wasn't a crowd in there at the time.

Hey hey, if there's one thing we in America dont need help with, it's figuring how many kilograms in a cubic metre of snow!!!!




That collapse was really something. At least they knew ahead of time not to fill it with people.

It would have made hand-egg a damn sight more interesting.

[djroof]

wow nice pic...

[96ukssob]

someone is going to get sued big time for this

I'm right by the Mall of America. Maybe we should organize a MN webmaster get-together?

[Coup]

America is literally falling apart. Can't wait till all that tax-cut money trickles down so we can fix it.

[Kenny B!]

Saw it on the news last night, they're lucky it was empty. This is the type of thing we expect to see at the Big O in Montreal, every few years the roof tears and costs tens of millions to fix.

[fatfoo]

The story is in the newspapers today. 17 inches of snow on Minneapolis is a lot of snow. It's unfortunate that the roof collapsed.

[ottopottomouse]

I never know how much Americans weigh with everything in pounds

[Phoenix]

it looks empty...but i think there are some guys in a vehicle of some kind on the far side of the place...you can see them gunning out of there

[Ethersync]

From around 0:21 to 0:24 it sure looks like something black is running across the field in the back near the stands.

ICQ below.

[Dvae]

With all the snow everywhere are these the shovel ready jobs Obama has been promising?

[NutraCash]

thats a sign from god that people shouldnt live in places that cold!

[DaddyHalbucks]

Cool video. Crappy engineering.

[CYF]

I heard them mention on a video that it's the 4th time the metrodome roof has collapsed.

i believe i read/heard over the weekend that the 1st collapse was within the 1st month it was inflated.
