See that row of purple seats in the upper deck encircling the field? That marks exactly 5,280 feet (one mile) above sea level. Daunte Bichette couldn’t even hit a ball up to those bad boys.
Who splashed the first-ever home run in the pool? None other than D-backs legend Mark Grace on 5/12/98. BUT, he hit it as a member of the Chicago Cubs.
The Presidents Race takes place in the middle of the 4th & features Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln & Roosevelt. Don’t pledge your allegiance to Teddy. He hasn’t won since the race’s inception in ’06.
Enshrined as statues outside the stadium are three former Gator QBs and Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier, Danny Wuerffel and Tim Tebow. And yes, Tebow is running the ball.
Remember the scene in Jerry Maguire when Rod Tidwell jumps up after a big hit and does a crazy end zone dance? That happened in this stadium. SHOW ME THE MONEY!
