Stadium falls at second time of asking. The second time’s a charm. Crews tried once again to demolish the upper ring of the Pontiac Silverdome yesterday afternoon after Sunday’s failure, and this time they succeeded, or at least made progress. At about 4:05 pm local time, an ear-rattling boom sounded in Pontiac and the black […]
