  1. I grew up attending Astros games with my dad in the 70s. To my generation, the 'Dome is truly the "8th Wonder of the World"! Now, Houston's beloved Astrodome sits unused and in need of upkeep (sprinkler system, et al) to even qualify for occupancy. No politician seeking re-election wants to be the guy who tore down the 'Dome! I've a novel proposal: Spend the millions necessary to recondition the Astrodome and use it as a Baseball stadium! AA Texas leauge or even AAA Pacific Coast league would draw enough fans to presumeably recoup at least some operating expenses. Festivals and events would certainly be a possiblity-in the air conditioning. Minor league tix are substantially more affordable for working families. Game starting times (M-F 12 noon first pitch?) could be scheduled so as not to compete with the Astros. Houston is now America's 4th largest city and growing still. Minor league day games with $5-$15 tix in an air-conditioned stadium would sell, imho. What about you?
