^good post.

think about the revenue needed to maintain an indoor building that size all year...other than rider games (which would be better outside anyways) you would be lucky to fill the building even half full once a month....there is a reason BC place is removing its roof and minneapolis is demolishing the metrodome and the allouettes and impact play in tiny stadium when they have a dome down the street.

regina would be better served, if they actually had the $300 mil it would cost to build a dome, to take that money and spend $150 on a 30 000 seat open air stadium, $10 million on an indoor full field, practice facility and $140 mil on a 10 000 seat arena.
