    There would be cold November games but you also aren't going into a hanger on a perfect September day either, so there is a trade off. An early season game under the lights would also kick ass. The more I think about it the more I want it, go FBS and go outdoors. Screw the city, do it ourselves.
    NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.

    Plus an outdoor stadium could host some massive shows, too big for the Fargodome. Trends seem to be going that way. Washington Griz stadium is hosting Pearl Jam this summer. I'm very jealous

    I’m planning on living a good long while yet…

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    So, doubling down on “idiot”?

    In 2023 the average Pearl Jam concert attendance was 15,606. Maybe it's Fargo or politics, and not the venue?

    Fargodome looks towards 2025 budget
    https://www.inforum.com/news/fargo/f...ds-2025-budget


    The survey is still not complete but they want more events in 2025 after a slow 2024. They are looking for ideas

    How about try doing more outdoor events? People want to be outdoors in the summer. It doesn't even have to be expensive national bands.

    What is the mechanism for letting the FARGODOME your ideas? Just write to Rob S.? I see that they will probably just break even next year? I was able to see that much before I was booted out.

    I can say this until I am blue in the face but we need a convention center, and we need a FARGODOME upgrade.
