Pics of the Dome released by the Flames:

I know they're fake since there are no red seats in the Dome, but still, I thought people would like to see that the water is up to the top of the player tunnel entrance. Allegedly.

For reference on the amount of water that would be in the dome: (WARNING: EXTREMELY LARGE IMAGE, DON'T OPEN ON MOBILE)

Spoiler!

Think you can make that pic any bigger? I can almost see it if I spread it over 3 monitors.

What's sad is that, based on those pics, it'll still look like there was a massive mudslide in the arena even after the water is pumped out.

The amount of muck and general grunge on the seats is definitely surprising - not sure why I'd expect it to be any different, but it's definitely a mess.

I actually appreciate hi-rez images. Beats the low resolution stuff I often see posted, makes me wonder if I'm back in 1993.

Don't think it would start anyway.

I'm no mechanic, but it kind of looks like the engine is flooded.

The next time we build an area, let's not make it below grade and next to a river.

We'll put it on a hill and it will get wiped out by a twister.
