the best is the marlin on the top that randomly emerges and does a few flips before going back down

I was like there's no way the real thing would be as bright as it is in the gif.

I was wrong. So gloriously wrong.

There also appears to be real water shot out of the lower left side when the dolphin enters the water after his dive. Fabulous.

This is going to go down like every design of the 1970s and 1980s, specifically these uniforms.

Where everybody involved with making it will look back in 30 years and wonder "What the hell were we smoking when we built this?"

Are the little things in the upper left and upper right supposed to look like home run balls that made a hole through the design that looks like one of these?

Between that and the aquariums lining the 1st/3rd base sides, this is awesome. Just a magnificent troll job by the Marlins ownership. It will be so sweet when they are contracted by the league in 2017.

looking forward to seeing this in action. is it visible all the time or does it pop out when a HR is hit ala the apple?

Somehow not the dumbest ballpark feature ever, god help whichever team beats putting a pole in CF

I think the rest of the park is supposed to be real nice and actually classy

The aquarium lining sounds bad ass

That's just embarrassing tho

Hilarious, but embarrassing

Also the pole is the 2nd dumbest ballpark feature. The hill is by far the dumbest.

I just got home, looked at it again, and I can't stop laughing. There isn't any symmetry between all the doodles in the background of that thing. Why are there random swirls in the top left? They've got to find a way to make those flamingos move around also.
