My favorite of all the domed stadiums, besides myself of course, is my homie in New Orleans, the Superdome... At first I was put off by his trying to show me up by being so enormously cavernous, but over the years I grew to love him as a little brother, the big lug...
My least favorite dome of all time, the Kingdome, thankfully has been blown all to hell.... It was mediocre as domes go, but the main reason is I hate Seattle... I would have tolerated a Portland or even a Vancouver Kingdome...
My least favorite existing dome is the Alamodome in San Antonio... This monstrosity was antiquated before they broke ground on it... They did finally lure a pro football team... From Cananda.... To play Canadian football.... I guess it beats soccer... I suppose it's fitting the era of multipurpose sports domes began and ended in Texas less than 200 miles apart...
The Minneapolis Metrodome?... Boring... Pontiac Silverdome?... Boring... Perhaps they've been demolished too... I don't think I'd count that thing in Tampa though, whatever it is... Texas Stadium in Irving, even with the big gap in it's roof, is more of a dome than that... Oh, and the RCA Dome, if it's still called that, in Indianapolis is pretty nondescript...
Don't get me started on retractable roofs...
