Fairbanks is thinking about hosting one of these outdoor games and shooting for a Guinness record. We have a local football filed with a couple sections of high school bleachers available. Ice making equipment is a moot point. Scheduling won't be a problem and attendance won't be the record we shoot for.
It's supposed to hit -50 tonight, so it's unfortunate that we didn't host it this year. Believe it or not the weather guy is forecasting "a warming trend" by this weekend. It's only supposed to hit -40. For those interested, the descriptive terms for weather around here classifies -50 as "very cold". "Extreme cold" is not until we reach -51. We'll be prudent. It would be irresponsible to hold an outdoor game when it was "extremely cold."
Not sure what the record is for the coldest outdoor game, but we would probably be in the mix. Attendance, not so much. Probably only slightly more than a Seawolf home game.
