I LOVE the fact that we had the foresight to have a sun study commissioned in September at 1 PM. Then we used that study to custom design the modifications of the stadium to make the visitor's sideline literally hell on earth. At this time it is projected to feel like 97 degrees at kickoff with 66% humidity. Hopefully, it gets even hotter than that. The best would be if a storm came in just before kickoff and dropped just enough to make it super steamy. I have to imagine we'll be wearing our white uniforms forcing them to not only have to endure 20 degrees more heat than the home sideline but also to have to play in their blue jerseys which will be much hotter. Talk about a home field advantage. Now we just need to hide all of their toilet paper in the visitor's locker room and have some AC problems...

Not to mention as a fan, the sun shields might be blocking their view! Spending all that money and thinking you have a great seat just to see that -Talking about being pissed!

That's where we should force all of the Bills fans to sit regardless what tickets they bought. Want to come and watch in our stadium? Here is your section. Pick a seat and we'll give those wearing Dolphins gear your nice seats. We should also double their price for all F&B.
 
Obviously, it's ridiculously hot in September for visiting teams, but I wonder if the effect is just as bad when the rest of the country is getting into winter and then travels to a hotter climate? Miami's temps aren't that much cooler in the winter than in the summer. The net change might be even greater.
 
I'm an idealist; I believe in good sportsmanship and fair play. However, the NFL and many of their fans do not. Personally, I think every NFL stadium should have a dome so that the weather is not a factor in games. May the best team win... on their own merits.

I know I'll get flamed for this, but IMO designing your stadium so that the visiting team is constantly in direct sunlight while your team is in the shade is IMO a far worse example of cheating than the filming of practices done by the Patriots. By the same token, Northern teams that get a lot of snow but don't have a domed stadium are doing the same thing by using the weather to gain an advantage. When fans rejoice that the schedule has a Division opponent coming to Miami early in the season to play in the heat, and then complain that Miami has to play in Buffalo or New England late in the season, that's being a bit hypocritical, isn't it?

I know everyone will hate this post, but I truly believe in fair play. Unfortunately (for me), the NFL isn't in the good sportsmanship business; they're in the for-profit Entertainment Industry where anything goes. The way I see it, especially after seeing how corrupt and biased the League and Officiating can be (protecting Brady, for example), the NFL is not much different than Pro Wrestling with helmets and pads. The difference would be that Pro Wrestling scripts all of the matches, while the NFL usually only cares about controlling the outcome of certain games.
 
All venues have inherent advantages. Altitude in Denver, heat and humidity in Miami, cold in many sites, grass vs. field turf, etc. . Part of being a good team is being able to handle different environments. I don't see that as equivalent to taping practices or corrupt officiating.
 
I think it is BS. But then again I also think Seattle designing noise into their stadium is BS as well. How many people would be crying if the cold weather teams didn’t put out heated benches and only the old school metal.

Sometimes I wonder if how we built the canopy is even legal

Altitude is inherent when you play, this was man made lol

I often kinda think the same thing. The morality of it.

Then I conclude that we got it absolutely 100% correct.

If owners were smart they would build stadiums where the seats were as close as humanly possible to the field..

That’s intellectual design

The dark v light color thing is a matter of debate, but most scientific studies seem to indicate almost no difference when all factors and properties are taken into the evaluation.

Should you wear light-colored clothes in hot weather to stay cool?

Summertime fashion — light in weight and light in color. Are these pastel colors a designer's choice? Or do light colors actually keep you cooler, as some say? Read to find out if you should ditch the goth wardrobe this summer.

Irrespective of that, standing/playing under the beating S.FL sun and humidity will just suck the life out of ppl who aren't accustomed to it.
