How much do we know?

We haven't verified which way Dow Diamond faces yet, so we won't pretend to name the shady sections — a seating map pointed the wrong way is worse than no map. What's above is real: the sun's astronomical position for this park's exact coordinates and timezone. On the interactive page you get the live sun compass, sunset against your game's real start time, and the hour-by-hour forecast.
