No Fear of Heights Here: Working on the New Roof for the Carrier Dome

The Moon and the Dome

View North Toward Syracuse

[I posted the following comments with this photo on Facebook recently.] 
This is the kind of scene that makes me turn the car around.

I was driving downhill, leaving SU's South Campus (where I have recently added a better hearing aid to my inventory). 

The photo shows, from left, Carrier Dome; just behind it the imposing but dwarfed Crouse College; Day Hall on Mount Olympus at the top of SU (at the same latitude as Carrier Dome); and in the nearer distance at the right, Morningside Reservoir's (3) tanks. From this perspective it is easy to see how huge the Dome is.

UFO or Carrier Dome?

Finals, 2015 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship: Iroquois Nationals v. Canada

This final, 46th game of the 2015 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship took place at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse on Sunday afternoon, September 27, after 10 days of play and 45 games between 11 teams. In the final game the Iroquois Nationals played Canada.

As the playing week progressed, many folks became convinced that the final game would be between these two great teams. Canada has never been beaten in this annual competition ever. The Iroquois Nationals are strong and could conceivably overcome Canada this year.

The crowd in the Carrier Dome was overwhelmingly purple! 

These photos do not show play but the ceremony following the game. It was a precious moment.

Canada won 12-8. No one has anything to feel bad about. It was a spectacular game! US came in third; Israel came in fourth.
