Charles,
It looks like the roof has tiedowns all around.
Those highway department lane separation barriers are spotted around
the floor in pairs.
Are they afraid the roof will blow away?
Regards,  Bob S.

My guess is that they don't want wind and/or interior pressure variations to 
cause to to flap up and down.

Charles,
It's an interesting picture with lots of detail.
That stadium is responsible for a lot of change in (US) pro football.
After the Vikings team had a lot of success in it, the other cold
weather cities took notice.
The slow, sure footed players of the northern cities outdoor stadiums were
replaced by lighter, faster players better suited to the indoors.
Regards,  Bob S.

I'm still looking forward to the first MN Twins Baseball game with SNOW.  Now 
that we have them outdoors and out from under the teflon roof!
