Patrick 02-18-2005, 03:46 AM Okay, I'm going to start a new weekly segment called, Name that skyline. First person to name it correctly, wins! Good luck! I'll start off easy!

mranderson 02-18-2005, 05:41 AM Could it be Indianapolis?
Patrick 02-19-2005, 01:53 AM Nope. Try again! Here's a small, not so helpful hint: it is located in a "red" state!
Patrick 02-19-2005, 02:06 AM Here's another pic:

mranderson 02-19-2005, 07:40 PM OK. I will guess again. St. Petersburg, Florida. Could the dome be Tropicana?
Patrick 02-19-2005, 09:43 PM Oh, you're making this too hard! Think South US, but not Florida.
mranderson 02-20-2005, 10:53 AM The only one left with a dome in that region is Atlanta. However, that does not look right.
Patrick 02-20-2005, 01:35 PM Okay, it's in Texas!
mranderson 02-20-2005, 02:13 PM you threw me. That makes it either Ft Worth, Houston or San Antonio. I favor the last one.
mranderson 02-20-2005, 04:37 PM I personally ruled out Ft. Worst because it looks like there is a domed stadium in the first picture. That would make it San Antonio, however, it does not look like the Alamo Dome. You may be right, Luke.
Sooner&RiceGrad 02-21-2005, 01:12 AM You all mean you don't recognize those two funky lookin' towers, with the divets in the top? That second pic in the first post is from 287.
El Gato Pollo Loco!!! 02-21-2005, 01:56 AM Houston? (pulling it)
Sooner&RiceGrad 02-21-2005, 12:49 PM Ummn... no. It's Fort Worth. Trust me.
Midtowner 02-21-2005, 01:03 PM Definitely Fort Worth. Here's another picture of that skyline:

Sooner&RiceGrad 02-21-2005, 11:30 PM I think we all have the point, but that pic is not bad. I wish ours looked like thta, all glassy. Instead ours is BLACK.
Patrick 02-24-2005, 10:34 PM Yup, Ft. Worth...you nailed it guys! Good work! I'll put up another skyline for next week!
Midtowner 02-25-2005, 12:10 AM Why wait?

Patrick 02-25-2005, 11:40 AM I've looked everywhere for this skyline...do you have any hints?
mranderson 02-25-2005, 11:45 AM looks a bit like Boston.
