One thing I remember about the Dome, especially as a little kid, was how I always felt like I was going to fall out of my seat when I sat in the upper deck. I wonder if they can replicate that in hotel rooms — maybe tilted beds that make you feel like you're going to roll out?

Put a massive, inflatable floor in it and make the world's largest Moonwalk.

Who knew that Houston had a demand for a 4-star 1000 room hotel. Maybe it could fill up during OTC but I couldn't even see the rodeo pulling in that many people. Most rodeo-goers would opt for driving home for the night.

Sadly, no one likes my idea of turning the Astrodome into a gigantic aquarium. Install some enormous clear windows, and then we'd have something to look at when we're stuck in traffic on 610.
