What's up with practicing in ballrooms?

[Jeremy Igo]

The practice field is actually three full size football fields side by side.

 

Seems like just a regular steel shelter over one of them would not be expensive and much larger than a ballroom. 

 

Maybe it is a zoning thing? There are townhomes near.

So we can practice the blitz!

Even Ricky Proehl's Proehlific Park in Greensboro has an indoor facility...just saying. 

About 50 yards long...regulation width.

Artificial turf is actually more dangerous than grass in many cases.  I don't see what the point would be to just add a turf field.  Might as well go all the way and cover it.

Part of the recent renovation plan is an indoor practice facility if y'all forgot.

I was just about to ask about this, but I haven't seen anything else about it.

Nope. That was one of two proposals. Charlotte/NC took the cheaper option that doesn't include an indoor practice facility.
