TCU Football Opens New 'Snow Room'
There’s snow on the ground in Fort Worth, but this time it’s not shutting the city down. Instead, it’s tucked away inside the TCU Horned Frogs newest investment in player performance — the first snow room in college football.
Part of a massive $50 million renovation to the Simpson Family Restoration and Wellness Center, the snow room is more than just a headline-grabber.
