I think it would be cool to institute a Fargo Walk of Fame. We could incorporate a similar concept as the Hollywood Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but add our own twist to it. I know there are concrete blocks of hand prints of famous people that have visited Fargo in the past at the Visitors Center but those have deteriorated over the years and many of them have cracks in them and are held together by caulking (talk about a pathetic fix) They also look incredibly cheap in quality. Perhaps we could have something along the lines of the Fargo Walk of Great Americans...:) Think of how involved people would get in their downtown by being able to nominate and vote for Great Americans... plus the attraction could be put online as well, letting all Americans vote... which would really give Fargo some national exposure... I don't think we'd want to limit this to just North Dakotans though, as I really get sick of being reminded that North Dakota's most famous person is Lawrence Welk (Snooze Fest anyone?)
