After the Great Lakes competition, my kids were talking about needing a larger space than the Convocation Center at Eastern Michigan U. Nice place, but inadequate. Mike Martus and I also discussed this, and just as my kids suggested, he proposed using the Silverdome in Pontiac. Big enough, probably available, and still well located. Our concern was more than a convenience issue...there is also a safety issue. I think the fire marshal would not approve the space allocated. Tempers were a little short, I believe partly due to the cramped conditions. Within the first half hour after we arrrived, a couple engineers from the team next to us yelled at my kids for being in their way. Any chance we can compete next year at the Silverdome?
