Might be a problem if you are in the stands but if you're running around hitting people, this is considered nice.

They have fog in the Dome?

The Temp won't be a factor, but the field condition will. It wouldn't surprise me a bit if the 49's turn the spinklers on the night before the game to soak the field in an attempt to slow down the Saints offensive attack. The Saints equipment manager had better be prepared to have extra cleats on hand if the field gets slippery.
Soaking the field the night before the game is an old trick. The next day the surface appears firm because it has time to dry before game time, but with a little foot traffic and activity it starts to give. I've heard Saints players complain about this before, just recently on the Titans field.

pretty sure GB soaked their field when we played them this year, if you
watched the players slip.

you know what? forget the 49ers! We'll just let PT, Ivory, and Darrin run over them.

any team from our division can sock any team from their division.
