VIDEO! - Metrodome Roof Collapses Under Heavy Snow



This video is just incredible, and seeing as how no one was hurt, we can say it was pretty cool to watch!

On Sunday, the roof of the Metrodome in Minnesota collapsed under the weight of over 17 inches of heavy snow. Workers were removed from shoveling duties on the roof shortly before the collapse due to safety concerns.

The scheduled game between the Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants has been rescheduled for Monday Night and will be played at Ford Field in Detroit.

The roof is actually an "Inflatable" dome that is kept in place by 20 high powered fans. We don't know how that works either, but we're thinking there should maybe be 30 fans? Just saying.....
