I actually think the next stadium will be a dome or retractable roof. Economic forces will likely push it that way. If the Chiefs come begging for taxpayer assistance to build, government will likely be asking for a facility that could bring other future economic benefits to the area (Super Bowl, Final Four, etc.). On the other hand, if Clark tries to build a privately funded stadium, pressures will exist to maximize revenues to fund the building when Chiefs are not playing. Both scenarios point to a climate controlled facility IMO. Another factor that will ultimately come into play as well is eliminating as many reasons why fans would choose to stay home as opposed to watching the game at home. Bad weather would be another "excuse" the team could eliminate by a climate controlled stadium.
