Ten years ago, the roof of the Metrodome collapsed during the middle of the 2010 Minnesota Vikings season. Watch as the NFL and the Vikings tell this story of this historic event, and hear from workers who were on the scene at the time of the collapse along with Jared Allen, Chad Greenway, Rick Spielman, and other members of the Vikings staff who had to handle moving the team’s game that week against the New York Giants to Ford Field in Detroit.

A perfect metaphor for Minnesota fighting spirit in the fourth quarter.
ruff
It's a bit of a depressing thought, though, that this was what it took for the issue of the Vikings stadium to get fixed. Keep in mind, there was talks since at LEAST 2002 to replace it, and at one point it was suggested the Vikings could've MOVED if the issue wasn't resolved.
Jesus, I hate to say it… but is this what it'll take for Tampa or Oakland to finally fix their stadium issues?
Why is there a documentary for a roof collapse?
I remember this
Turf: Viking fans. Roof: Vikings season……every year.
Brought up the goat qb for absolutely no reason

“Alright, Rick, now prentend youre talking on the phone”
Did he say 17 inches of snow over a 48 hour period? Here in Denver that is basically routine. Minnesota has colder extremes but here in colorado our climate in winter is more arctic
Imagine being the maintenance guys having to get up that high and shovel and wash snow off roof. What a sucky job hopefully they got paid well.
Who puts a parachute type fabric on the roof of a professional stadium in the Midwest during December nonetheless.
Ummm whoever designed this had to of majored in something else besides architecture cuz this was a complete failure
They're all congratulating themselves for having solved the logistics. Surely its just an away game plan that needed to be implemented apart from booking hotels and meeting rooms at the last minute…
The city of San Francisco wanted to build this type of stadium with the fabric roof for the 49ers and Giants around 1983. It would have been a disaster.
Trying to hold the ruff
at least it was the vikings dome
14:29 – Mac Miller!!!!!!
Wow
Only 17 inches lol we get like 30 inches here
Crazy i went to the rescheduled gma
Remember it like it was yesterday. Brett Favre was still playing, but he was seriously hurt and the streak was in serious jeopardy. Then a few weeks later the Bears laid that hit on Favre on that hard ass frozen turf in Minneapolis and it was over.
I'm not even a fan of the team I just like hearing stories about history in the NFL
I remember this and was sad I had to wait till Monday to watch the Vikings
Holding the “ruff”
If you build a stadium in an area prone to snow… why would you make the huge roof out of weak plastic? You can at the very least add warming pads across the roof to melt the snow as it touches the roof. I mean who thought of this design?
I still can't believe this happened, Vikings played in a temporary college field, then got a new bad ass stadium… MEANWHILE CHARGERS COULDN'T WORK OUT A DEAL WITH CITY OF SAN DIEGO BECAUSE OF CHEAPSKATE SPANOS.
Roof ❌ Ruff ✅

Good thing the game wasn’t going on
This is so boring. There's no story here. It'd be interesting if they just explained what they did, but they do the individual interviews like there's some sort of emotion to be found (with music to boot?). There is no emotion in logistics, and it seriously can't be that difficult to figure out how to relocate a sports game. They may as well had interns handle the entire thing and put that into a documentary. "Just box up everything like we do for normal away games. Bring purple paint and non-American vehicles if necessary. Detroit sucks."
Why is everyone saying “ruff”

Not a Vikings fan but I totally can understand the angst and the chaos this caused their fans! Unreal! I can’t believe the games went on!
Jesus love you all
I love living in Minnesota. Nothing like being indoors in a blizzard!!!
Imagine this happened mid game
imo the most incredible stadium in the world
just for them to get blown out
Was that state of the art in 1982
Let's build a stadium in a frigid rust belt city that depends on man power being willing to brave the elements (of a below zero blizzard)
And spray a fire hose
To keep the roof raised
Dumbess ugly weakest stadium ever built…….
And the new stadiums are funded by tax payer money. What a scam. Players making millions along with the owners yet they won't fund their own damn stadium.
