Outside was the only damn option when the game was created. The first football game was only a few years after the Civil War.
How in TF would anyone from 1869 think to build a stadium with a roof? Or a play inside a huge building?
Saying football is "meant" to be played in the elements is a huge misnomer.

oh, stop. Some of the best games in history were played outdoors, and many were played in some kind of weather.
For that matter, baseball indoors kind of sucks. I went to countless games at Busch stadium, rain or shine, and loved the atmosphere. Been to a dozen games here in PHX (when the Cards came into town), and never enjoyed it as much.
Football is an outdoor sport, period.
