Who knew – The Coke bottle at AT&T Park gets a face lift. In all the time I spend at AT&T Park, I was unaware the Coke bottle gets an annual refurbish. The crew working on the bottle install new letters and make sure all the lights work, patch it up and paint it for the upcoming season. BTW, the Coke bottle is 80 feet long with playground slides that will blow bubbles and light up with every Giants home run.
The field now has no grass, its all sand. The greens crew has about 3 weeks to get the grass in place for it to be ready for pre-season. FYI… under the sand, the field sits on a rock bed that sits on a grated steel floor. This provides sufficient water drainage. Under this grated steel floor airflow is provided by an massive engine located under the left field bleachers to provide quicker drainage.
Next week, I will start removing some of our older equipment in our TX facility to make room for our new infrastructure. Will keep you posted.
