I saw that the Vikings brought in these canopies for over the benches - that diffused water too. Not sure how much that helped or not?

The stadium was designed to bake the opponents. Home side is completely shaded at all times.

Just the opposite of the old Met.

I always loved Marshal telling this. I believe the rest of the story was that it freaked out other teams like the warm weather Rams.

Yes, that was where I was going with it.  Love that story of chanting Odin as the sun dropped behind the stadium and the wind started to swirl.
