For the first 17 years of my life my favorite team of any sport inhabited a place called the Pontiac Silverdome. If you have never been to this strucural landmark in your life, then I feel bad for you. If you have, then you know exactly where I’m coming from when I say when the Silverdome was rocking there was nothing like it. You know the feeling I mean because you’ve stepped foot in this massive stadium, you’ve tailgated in it’s parking lot and you’ve felt every emotion possible at it’s sporting events.
Today I learned that nine years after it’s initial closing, the Pontiac Silverdome will be demolished in the spring of 2016.
