Off-the-Field Fun

The popular Kids Korner debuted four brand-new inflatable attractions during the 2015 season, including a bounce house, obstacle course, and slide. The main attraction is a custom bouncer in the shape of Otey--kids can jump on the swamp possum’s belly! (Admission to the Kids Korner is $4 and includes unlimited play during the game.)

Little ones will also enjoy the popular trackless train that will chug-a-chug through the concourse for the entire game. Older kiddos can check out the small arcade behind home plate.
