If you look closely, you can see someone on the far sideline on a cart jamming out of there mighty fast.

Saw it yesterday, if you watch the far sidelines you'll see somebody that was lucky to be driving a v-8 gator cart!

A free game is NOT enough to get me to even visit Detroit.

Now, a chance to go through GMs facilities (even the secret stuff) might be enough.

An inflateable doame in a place like that was dumb though, I guess no one thought to figure in snow load during its design.

Which it should of been built for 10X more snow then the worst on recorded.

Which would of made them build a solid roof

Well, it lasted 28 years without incident. I contend maintenance was not done on the roof, otherwise it would not have done that.
