PITTSBURGH, Pa. (KDKA) -- Four stadiums across America that are homes to NFL teams could soon be used by FEMA as emergency shelters during extreme weather events.
The stadiums will be used during events like hurricanes, tornadoes, and flooding. They will essentially be turned into emergency shelters and hospitals, under a new partnership between the National Football League and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
The four venues that have been picked to serve as "Mission Venue Ready" locations are Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, Lumen Field in Seattle and Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay.
