Or is that a big enough arena to hold the pits but I doubt that. That would be a perfect central location for us so we wouldn't have to fly or be on a bus that long like we did to Atlanta, Orlando or Houston. I would really like to see it go out west again. I liked it out west in Houston but for us as a team we really didn't enjoy it too much. We went to the beach on a Wednesday but it was closed because it was too cold. There wasn't much for us to do there. The hotel we stayed in wasn't that good and it didn't seem like the atmosphere for Nationals it seemed more for business. Just my thoughts.

1.The buisness part would change.
2. Yes, Weather IS unpredictible, but the Sterling INN has an Indoor Waterpark and most of the hotels are pretty good at catering to unique types of clientel.
3. In the rare case (you could always put the pits in those HUGE walkways) that there wouldn't be enough space, you can just put the whole event in Cobo Center!
3.Detroit's VERSIONS (notice the S) of Centennial Park are Hart Plaza AND Campus Marcious.
4.We are a State with one of the greatest number of tems per capita.
5.Team's up here don't want to pay 10+ Grand to get down there (I agree, Californians have had a harder time, but our team could never afford to go all the way out there).
My personal opinion: I don't necessarily like walking through all the seats half-way across a Stadium in between all those seats as either people are sitting there or It's taped off (Experienced this in Palmetto). There is actually a lot to do in Detroit, but not many people realize it.
