It's the feel of going into Soldier Field in the city of Chicago.
I remember with my family, sometimes the night before the game or the day before the game, we'll grab dinner or even stay in the city after the game and grab dinner.
So it was a very nice experience to be able to come into the city and just the overall feel and the energy of the city.
You could feel it in Soldier Field in Chicago.
I think that's tough.
I think that's really tough on the families.
I think that's really tough on the people who are coming in town and coming to the game.
I mean, Chicago traffic alone is already something that you have to account for.
And now with the facility being in the suburbs, now you account for the travel getting through the city.
So it will make the commute very difficult.
difficult for the family and friends and for the people who are close to the players who want to have easy commutes and travel going to the games.
I think it will make it more difficult.
I got to go with Fortfield and Fortfield because I'm from Detroit.
I'm a Detroit native.
So I grew up.
In the dog days and years of the Detroit Lions, 0-16, I saw a lot of bad football growing up with the Lions.
So the year that I was there, we won the division.
We went 15-2.
It was a phenomenal season to be able to see that stadium in downtown Detroit sold out, all the lights flickering in the pregame festivities and player announcements.
It was a phenomenal experience.
