text: why nfl fields in "cold" cities are not equipped with underground heating? heated soccer fields are a very common practice in europe. nfl and the nfl teams make millions of dollars each season. why do we keep playing in snow? cities like denver, green bay, cleveland, buffalo, etc. should invest a few bucks in this. don't you think? if this question spawned from last night game in seattle, it's because seattle isn't used to getting snow. just rain. about those other cities you listed, i don't know. that's a good question. you'd think someone would have thought of that by now. on the other hand, i love watching football in the snow. it's more challenging. changes things up a bit. i don't think i've ever seen a football game called on account of the weather like baseball. you can play football in anything, snow, sleet, rain, mud, sun. it's all fun.
