They did this last year, but they do not plan on doing it again this year. I think the main reason for this is union issues they ran into in St. Louis. Since they took it in a semi, the union charged a TON of money to use the docks at the dome. I don't think PNW FIRST wants to deal with this again, because it was a pain last year.
