hiheat32 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 yeah, thats roof paneling that blew down onto the stands. sure makes me feel safe next time i go see a ranger game. how does this directly affect me today? my hs baseball team was scheduled to play at the ballpark today, but of course it was canceled. ugh :headache: i sure hope other stadiums dont have flaws like this. the engineers should have known that it gets windy in texas. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 They must have cut some serious corners in that stadium. A railing collapsed at the first game or at least during the first season and killed someone who was leaning on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmsrenown Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 ...... Well, Rangers better do something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Perhaps if they had used VectorWorks or ZMod instead of OEdit when designing the stadium, something like this would not have happened.... Luckily this didn't happen when people were sitting in the stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angryrat Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 eh **** happens. nature still wins and man cannot out 'engineer' nature. had you been in the park when the roof panels came loose, you all would have been under cover by the time it got that bad. they don't just up and fly off... they'd slowly break loose. who knows what that person was doing on the railing in the first place. trying to break it loose maybe?
