LaDainian Tomlinson of the Los Angeles Chargers and his very fun wife Torsha and I met for the first time only ten minutes after my flight back landed back in Ohio after doing an event in Florida. They wanted his Pro Football Hall of Fame Induction party to be modern and glamorous, and had some concerns about doing a “tent party in a parking lot”.

I assured them that when I do a tent, I “DO” a tent and it would look and feel like a building that had always been there. The end result was a gorgeous tent that comfortably accommodated over 800 guests. It had an engineered floor with floor-vented air conditioning, a glass-fronted entrance, 10 foot spiral crystal chandeliers, a striped dance floor, and many LED video screens that continually morphed from image to image throughout the night.

We added an auxiliary tent which housed a Cigar Lounge, and another for the restroom trailers, as well as a front porch at the main entrance.
