94: Number of shipping containers encircling it.
0: Customs officers inspecting the shipping containers.
5: Sides to the massive main bar, which pours frozen margaritas, vodka Red Bulls and nine beers.
90: Average speed of your fastball, as measured on the Fast Pitch game.
12: Food trucks expected there tomorrow, including TaKorean and BBQ Bus.
5: Truckeroo events planned for the summer, on non-game days.
30: Food trucks planned for each of those days.
