UrbanToronto's front page story on the Outfield District Open House event from the 6th
is here, mostly Matias Bessai's work (small contribution from me). Here though, is a selection of 42 photos I took during ceremony and tour. This isn't everything we saw. There are certain bits that I'm thinking afterwards "Wait, I didn't get a photo of X or Y? Huh?", but we were rushed around at points, after being urged to test to food offerings in each area (maybe we tested a a tenth of what was on offer?) and then told "let's go, let's go, on to the next" as bits of really good banh mi, for example, are dropping from our mouths and hands. I know, lovely picture painted… anyway, some photos got missed being taken in the mix.
Field Level Ceremony:
Four presenters, plus media in the seats.
Some of the back office in the stands, cameras on the field.
100 Level Changes
The Jays' new Bullpen. There are spots to stand (and drink and eat) and watch just behind that RETHINK
COLOUR sign.
Oppo Taco and its offerings;
Souvenirs…
'The Stop' is comestibles to one side…
…mostly potables to the other. The little cups on the bar (hammered copper background) were cocktail samples!
Good food options. Light snack-wise, wou can get five different colours/flavours of candy-coated popcorn, and more colours/recipes of cocktails. The blue(berry) popcorn is really good. The blue Rum Punch (however) is like drinking a popsicle. Yeucchhhh.
This is the view over the visitor's bullpen from The Catch Bar area:
