Frankly, the missed the boat when they didn't put a retractable roof on Paul Brown Stadium that would have allowed them to have all kinds of large scale events no matter the weather considerations, while still being able to open up the roof and host football games in good weather, similar to what the Colts, Cardinals and others have done.
I wonder what the deadline for having the improvements in place are? I'd assume UD Arena is a potential contingency plan as well, but if they want to keep it local, I'd think they could also consider Rupp Arena, the Pacer's home court in Indy or Nationwide arena in C'Bus.
Edit: forgot about the YUM center as mentioned above, which would also work as a regional option.
