Being indoors or having a closable roof means the stadium can be used year round for things like concerts, which means additional revenue.  It also means the chance to host events like the Super Bowl, WrestleMania, etc.  Not to mention additional utility.  For example, Lucas Oil is right across the street and connected by underground tunnels to the Indianapolis Convention Center and they use the stadium for additional space for large conventions. 

No matter what, taxpayers are going to have to give something towards a new stadium, even if it's just land.  It makes sense to maximize revenue.  And sorry, I don't go to sporting events trying to get my man card validated.

I'll support the Bengals moving into a dome the year after Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Baltimore open theirs.
