On this spooky night, I have a photo from the public cemetery in Pontiac Michigan. I took this last year during a photo walk with Rodney Mendoza. Not only is he a lifelong friend, but his is also a great photographer.
I hope you have a great Halloween. Be safe and have fun!!!

Last fall while I was in Michigan, I spent an afternoon with an old friend photographing some spots around Pontiac. We hit up this spot, which is an abandoned concert venue. Although you’d never know this spot hasn’t been used for years. Someone is paying good money to keep in in great shape even though it isn’t in use. It looked like they could hold a rock concert the next day….. So it isn’t your normal grungy looking abandoned location. But it was cool exploring this spot.

The only Detroit Lions’ player in the history of the franchises, who consistently torn this place up (Pontiac Silverdome), was Barry Sanders. Frankly….he was and is still the best running back to ever play the game. He’d hold every running record, except he retired early. It’s sad to see his home field in this condition. At the same time, Ford Field is so much better than the Silverdome. Fortunately, I had the privilege of seeing Barry play here in person, plus dozens of games on TV.
One other cool fact, not only did the Detroit Pistons play their home games in this building for a long time, but I played high school varsity basketball game on the Piston’s court in this building. It’s an experience that I’ll never forget and therefore this building has a special meaning for me.

Thanksgiving day tradition includes the Detroit Lions playing at the Pontiac Silverdome. We tried to get tickets to the game at Ford Field, but failed. So we went to the Silverdome hoping the teams would show up.
Happy Thanksgiving.
