PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) - The former home of the Detroit Lions is going to pot this Halloween.
Pontiac Silverdome spokesman John Mozena says a medical marijuana trade show will be held Oct. 29-31 at the recently reopened stadium.
"The First International Cannabis Convention" will feature entertainers, exhibits, vendors, guest speakers, and edibles for qualifying patients with current medical marijuana cards. Attendees must be at least 18.
Pontiac Police Chief Val Gross tells The Detroit News city approval is not required, but marijuana is illegal in the Detroit suburb and smoking inside a privately owned building is illegal statewide.
The 80,300-seat Silverdome was home of the Detroit Lions until 2002 and was sold last year for $583,000 to Triple Properties Inc. of Toronto.
