... out for name of government building; goes with Citizens Square

Just when I start to think about how old I'm gettin', somethin' like this pops up and makes me remember that I'll probably always be 12.  ;)  Oh yeah, almost forgot: tee hee! 

It's especially funny for me cuz I'm an idiot I have cousins from there and some that still live there.  Hell, I've been there.  Harry Baals gov't building ... tee hee!

Another example of government officials ignoring the will of the people!!!

I like that the 2nd place was the thunder dome. That is cool.

Yeah, that's pretty awesome.  'Two men enter, one man leaves' is kinda apt for a court building too.    But it's pretty lame they went with a choice only 5 people voted for.  Pandering to the vocal minority, I guess.  Special interest groups exerting their power, it seems.  Democracy my eye.

That would be awesome.
"Wher are you going?"
"To the Thunder Dome! I got a traffic ticket and i must battle to avoid getting points!!!"

People of Fort Wayne must be either quite entertaining or extremely bored.

We should designate one day out of the year to call the OTT as the Thunder Dome. Ther eare enough arguments here to make it appropriate.

Well let's be honest.  The government can't let us name stuff.  They just can't.

If they did, the Grand Canyon would be called the "Glory Hole".

I bet you that U.S. geography knowledge would be the highest it has ever been if the public was allowed to name stuff.
