So, new bigger venue? 2 venues? If the latter, I would not be surprised by DeltaPlex and EMU-Convocation Center.

Finding a venue to hold 102 or more is very difficult. If someone knows of a venue with the ability to hold 2 full fields, over 6000 fans, parking for all, pits for over 102 teams, I would be interested to hear about.
I have gone through all of the venues in my head and cannot think of one other than Ford Field that would have the capacity for this and at a decent price.
