The big problem is finding a night after his show that wasn't booked already. They would have to move the dirt out and set up a basketball court or hockey rink for the next night. His big fear is that we would get over the catch fence and hit one of their million dollar roll away bleachers.
It is dooable, we got a guy in DuQuoin who wants to do it for us right now.
but if we don't show support it will evaporate right before our eyes. promoters like to turn a profit and usually a loss will send them looking for other things to promote.

Maybe, if someone could put together a marketing plan that made as much sense, someone at Feld might read it...
