If you haven’t heard, Arizona State’s $8 million practice dome was destroyed last night, in a storm of the gnarliest proportions. Pictures of the wreckage make the facility look like it was purchased in Wal-Mart’s camping supply section but, to be honest, the darn thing was pretty nice. In fact, we were mighty jealous — [...]
