Pete and UMAA have made it clear. They need $5 donations and $5million dollar donations to get this done. £5.00 might even be accepted, so:

Agreed. Now is the time for people like us to stop talking about new and expanded venues, and actually help make them happen. Its all up to the RebelNation. As coach O merchandise once read..."I'M IN!"
Foward Rebels! March to Fame!
