    The stadium roof is leaking

    according to the Weather Channel. Must be the design and implementation of roof that operates like a camera iris. You'd think for $2B you could get something that would hold up to a little rain.

    Put a few buckets around. Players can navigate them.

    Considering no one caught that they forgot to design the mechanism to close the roof until it was installed. This doesn't surprise me at all.

    Gotta wonder if this is the first time they've noticed the leak. It's not like it hasn't rained in Atlanta since the place was completed ... they've had plenty of rain. And it wasn't particularly heavy today. Maybe the cool temps shrunk some gaskets or something.

    More like the cool temps shrunk the entire roof. With the designed roof structure the way it is, that would create gaps everywhere I would think.

    To be fair, The original design from Oxford was like that of an Anus, not Iris.
