Each and every day, as I travel into work, I drive into the North side parking lot of NRG Stadium. The stadium has a way of blocking out the sun and other things, so it isn’t until I turn on McNee, into the parking lot, that the Astrodome is in full view right in front of me. Trust me, this isn’t really about the 'Dome'; I’m not kicking over THAT hornet’s nest today (or ever). But, each time I see the ‘Dome, I think about December 1, 1989. Yeah, a long time ago.
It was the first time I’d ever been on the floor of the Astrodome and it would be my last high school football game.
