Looks like I'm off there for a week - heading out tomorrow. Aside from freezing my bits off, anyone think of fun stuff to do while I'm there?

How about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame & Museum? I've never been there myself, but would like to go....

Lets see, you've got the rock hall of fame and... uh... that's all I did when I was there. Granted, I was only there for 5 days and I was working every day, so I didn't get much time to explore, but the rock hall is the only place I went. It closes kind of early (I want to say 6PM), but is open later one day of the work week, I think.

No offense to the people of Cleveland, but I didn't see much to do when I was there.

Maybe you could try to light the Cuyahoga River on fire.

Looks like the Cleveland International Film Festival is mid-March, if you're going back.

The good O'L days. Now you have to go to China to light a river on fire.

Just rusty abandoned factories that don't burn.

Heh - good suggestions all:-) Although lighting anything on fire at the moment would first involve digging through 48 inches of snow! It is vaguely cold here. The cool bit has been sitting in the office watching deer and squirrels playing in the snow about 10 feet away. I'll try and get photos if they come back today.
