Tinner, I believe most of that is directly proportional to the amount of beer they drink. Rocky, yeah, there is a lot of slate over in the Pointes!

Old School Said: Rocky, most of it was either North of the city or in Grosse Point. We did three of them on Grosse Ile. Lots of money over there.

There is just something about 111,500 people crammed into a big stadium. It is big, but when you walk up to it from the outside it doesnt look so large, at least until they made the additions around the outside. Maybe 20 feet high. 50 some rows down into the ground though. That is a lot of people.

After one or two events and always being near some inconsiderate slobs each time, I don't bother going to any more packed venues. I'd rather watch from the comfort of my home.

Mike, I have 4 brothers, from OHIO, used to be Roberts Roofing, heard of them? They were from the battle zone, near Toledo. 2 root for M 2 for OSU. My building has Blue all over it, most Buckeyes can't make themselves come thru the door. Funny situation. OS, born and raised in the Pointes. There are 5 of them. Tons of slate in that area. The Big House is big, for sure. Weird to walk into the stadium at ground level at the top of the stadium on one side and the bottom of the stadium on the other.

I've got 4 employees that are big MI fans. One used to be a forman. I'd say "It really scares me to think I have a guy that stupid in charge of a job". Makes for a lot of fun during the season. Just might turn into MI's turn for a while now........... so sad. LOL

I wasn't there, must' ve been the 1890's. LOL Had to get out of there, those are the directions some of the nuts (Buckeyes) were using trying to get away from the rest of the nuts(Buckeyes). Bo and Desmond just to name a few. M Go Blue. Where is there a lot of concrete tile in Detroit? Always has been a lot of slate. Lot of concrete in Phoenix. One of the top rivalies in history, not just sports. Welcome to the big house.

Man, I check in for like the first time in 8 months and the post police want my ID! I'm in Northwest Virginia. Oh and I guess I need to update/ my old profile. I'm a roof consultant, not a roofer.

Copperman, we are lot closer than that. Less than 50 by crow, about 60 by car.

And as one of the worst offenders when it came to initiating new posters, back in the day, well, I just hang my head in shame. Age has a way of doing that to ya, I guess. Sometimes you gotta smarten up a little to know how dumb you really are.
