It's actually growing on me. All it takes is one announcer to start screaming "That could be a fish-flipper!" for his home-run call, though, and we'll need to take action.

Yes and no
The “fish flipper” in the outfield still looks like a bad South Park joke, but the aquarium behind the plate is a really cool idea. Great way to add a personal touch to the park to set it apart from other parks, though it would make more sense if there were actual marlins swimming in it (which is, of course, unrealistic because marlins are way too big for that tank).
How much did Greg Dobbs’ agent have to pay these guys to feature him so prominently in the video?

I’m starting to come around to the fish feature too.
The brashness of it is great. Like a giant billboard saying “Fuck you this is Miami, bitch”.

Reyes
I wonder if the Jumbotron in the real park will show Jose Reyes in a Mets cap when he comes to the plate.

You know
It’s a gorgeous park, fishtacular home-run display notwithstanding.
And I say that as a Loria/Samson-hating Montrealer.

Phillies galore
Nice job of showing three Phillies players on the video board to only one Marlins player. I guess the Marlins are hoping Phillies phans will take over the park. Unlike Washington, I don’t think Miami cares who comes to the games as long as someone does.
