1974 was a crazy year. Nixon was impeached. The Detroit Wheels [[World Football League) went flat broke and into a ditch. My personal life wasn't much better that year [[I had a job so I wasn't flat broke but my life was in a ditch).

I remember this team although their life was so short it seems more like a hour than part of one season.

They played their games at EMU's Rynearson Stadium. As mentioned in the article, the team put up $ to add lights and renovations to the stadium.

I believe the Detroit [[or Ypsilanti) Wheels played night games until they went out of business.

I might have attended a game or two. How I found the stadium I don't know. Doubt they published Ypsilanti maps and mapping programs were a few decades away...
