It could be cool to get a ferry to the game like Disney where they transport people via boat from downtown but the boats would have to be much bigger.

I'm not sure I follow. Just playing around with a map, it looks like the Truman Sports Complex sits on about 450 acres round up to 500 if you want to.
Wheeler looks like it sits on about 550.
I mean, if y'all are proposing ripping the Wheeler airport out of there and replacing it, that is. If not - no, there's not even close to that kind of room. But if you were - you could fit something the size of TSC on that land.
But lord - the cost would be insane. That'll just never happen, IMO.
