Plus, it helps reduce risk of injuries with people slipping in rain/snow, change of gameplan on the same, and removes impact of wind on kickers and passing.
Not to mention it would also add a year-round venue for other things like concerts.
There are two other big outdoor-only venues that can continue to be used for concerts and the like - Riverbend (20k capacity) and GABP (42k capacity).
However, all the indoor venues are much smaller in comparison. Heritage Bank Center is the largest indoor venue right now and it only has 17.5k seating capacity.
This was posted on HBC's website I dunno how long ago, but it goes into detail the problems that this venue has - https://heritagebankcenter.com/whatsnextcincy
we have been going to games 25 plus years ..aside from one game with too much rain..nothing to complain about and most fans could care less about a dome
