I don't watch a lot of Miami games when they aren't playing NE, but I do recall one when I was a kid in which the announces were commenting that the New England Players seemed better prepared to play in the heat than the Dolphins as they showed the Miami sideline with multiple people taking oxygen.
I don't remember that at all. In fact, there is a reason you guys struggle in Miami even during some of our worst years.
JAX had to play in the September Miami heat last year, DEN the year before.
NE will have to this year.
"Fans in the sun are literally carried out of the stadium all game because of dehydration not too mention the players get IVs during the game."
Sounds like a pretty good reason!
Prior to the canopy, my understanding was that fans did not want to attend the early-season 1pm games. I haven't heard anything about Ross requesting non-1pm games since the canopy went up.
Jax is a wash as they are a Florida team. No advantage there. Historically the fans never had an issue when the team was winning but yes, that was Ross' excuse.
The canopy doesn't cover the whole stadium and in fact, much of the visitors side stays in the sun. The team sideline always does. there is a huge difference in temp between the two sides.
Where are the seats in the shade and sun at Hard Rock Stadium?Generally, the seats in the shade at Hard Rock Stadium are located:
South Sideline (Home): Shaded on the Dolphins home side of the field
Upper Deck: Shaded in seats directly under the canopy roof
And the seats in the sun at Hard Rock Stadium are located:
North Sideline (Visitors): Sun soaked on the visitors’ side of the field
End Zones: Sunny in sections closer to the field
