Just pulled these off the Great lakes group.  I can Verify they are adding to
 the Norris Center to make it a complete bowl config.  I was talking with Mark
Vichorich our nes assistant coach this weekend and he played there.

I just heard from home that the Soo Tribe has put up 1.6 millions dollars
to fund renovations to Lake Superior's hockey rink.  Apparently, the Norris
Center is going to be transformed into a multi deck affair with about 4,500
seats and 20 "sky boxes" (selling for $50,000 over 5 years).
 
The tribe has bought up a lot of real estate around the Eastern UP with
casino money.  Is the same thing happening in other communities where
casinos have been established on Indian Reservations?
