Pontiac Silverdome

An abandoned stadium in Pontiac, Michigan. It has hosted the Detroit Lions, Detroit Pistons, some Soccer teams, and several football bowl games. After the Lions left in 2001, nothing significant really happened there. In April 2010, it reopened but nothing has happened there yet. It is a good example of the failure of Pontiac, Michigan.
