You know, I confess I am neither architect nor engineer but as it seems this whole mess is because there was no provision in that brand-spanking new convention center outside of town for press boxes, did anyone look into the possibility of constructing some kind of erector-set temporary structure for that purpose at one end of the building so Dan, Peter and Tom could have their eyeries or did that just not occur to anyone?
Then again maybe I should shut up and not presume to speak to the grownups unbidden.
LOL...just go back to teaching mysterious secrets to the chosen white dude and send the money back to your village...lol.
