Breaking: Metrodome Collapses, Game Moved To Detroit

By | December 12, 2010 | Breaking News, Football, NFL | Comments Off

The Giants and Vikings were supposed to play in the Metrodome today. 17 inches of snow put the kibosh on that. This is the fifth time the fiberglass fabric roof bubble has collapsed, but I have never seen a video like this one.

The Giants’ charter plane was unable to land in Minneapolis on Saturday. They spent the night in Kansas City.

The game has been relocated to Detroit and will be played Monday night at 6:20pm, local time. Ticket-holders for the Metrodome who are able to get to Detroit have been promised seats on the 50 yard line. Free tickets will be available in Detroit starting at 8am. Those with tickets to today’s game in Detroit will also be able to attend without acquiring additional tickets.

About the author
ClumberKim is a sports geek. The die was cast early, by age 8, when Kim told anyone who would listen that she wanted to be the Boston Bruins statistician when she grew up. She could rattle off the roster by number, position, or hometown. Her sports interests are diverse, ranging from figure skating to football. She loves to watch golf, read books about golf, and trash talk golf, but she has never swung a club. The Fantasia Gardens course at Disney World doesn't count. Her participation in sports is limited to tennis in high school, rugby in college (where she excelled in the third half), and pitching endlessly to her baseball-loving son.
