Tell Smith we want it look like something a Hobby Lobby would buy illegally on the black market. That's more her base's speed.

Populous, HOK, NBBJ and AECOM are probably the four biggest arena designers in North America. Populous is actually the Design Architect on the new Calgary Convention Centre.

Ideally the deal should have been done 10 or so years ago. And I think it was the plan too, but the flood & repairs to the dome pushed that back.
