I "wiped seats" as a junior usher [[15 yo) and vividly recall being in the stadium on Sunday. The Detroit Police provided the security back then and there were none in the stadium. Then there was the smoke filling the skies around the stadium. I didn't typically watch the news, nor listen to it, so I had no idea what had taken place over night. Also, nothing was either whispered nor discussed, at least within earshot of me, of what had taken place over night. So there I sat in innocent bliss with my ball park frank and coke enjoying the game. It wasn't until driving home that I noticed as we drove down the Lodge Fwy [[headed north) that I saw armoured vehicles, Jeeps and other military vehicles headed south towards downtown. We had WWJ on to listen to the recap of the game and all I heard was talk of the riot. It was only then that my dad, who was driving, then explained what had taken place and what we needed to do once we reached home [[north east section of Detroit).
