The entire structure is considered a grain elevator. When you hear about a grain elevator explosion, it doesn't mean the conveyor belt blew up.... ;-)

This can be done legally, it might not be easy though...that's why it's a "Challenge" :P

Don't get all technical, do it in a real elevator used for people :)

ah, see, you're new to the challenge game. If that's what you wanted you have to be specific in the challenge. Otherwise, challenges are left open to interpertation and while the letter of the challenge may be met but no the intention of the challenge. Don't worry, you'll learn. :)

I think the best highlight of this was when the challenge was posted, your bike with a yellow DRZ. I made a sign with DRZ in yellow and took a photo of it with my bike. :SideSplittingLaughter: Met the challenge, but not the intention. Original Photo Game

Yep, what DS did was unexpected but legit.

Half the fun is figuring out how to meet the non-specific challenges. :D

Do "arenas" like AAC count as a stadium?

Hasn't that challenge be posted once before?

What exactly is a stadium's profession anyway? I've never known a stadium to do anything?

Preferably college, like Amon G Carter or Ford Stadium, but I guess you could go high school as well (Dragon stadium, Mustang stadium, etc).
