So today was the first time I was inside with everything installed (or, at least, if something wasn't installed yet, I didn't notice it....aside from the home-run celebration).
The two things that stuck out to me was how "distant" things sounded (really weird acoustics that I'm sure will just take some getting used to) and how creepy the bathrooms were. The men's room nearest my section was noticeably barren (not even wall ads) which just felt unfinished and creepy juxtaposed with the rest of the stadium.
The bobble-head museum was kind of unexpected, but also kind of neat (especially highlighting all the teams' give aways this year).
I don't think there's a lot to draw out of one game but my brothers and I did a full 360 walk around and noticed a pretty significant breeze out in right...maybe the ball will carry that way? Sure looked like Gabby's shot did. Also on that note, I thought it was really funny how many people grabbed their cameras with anticipation after the homer only to audibly groan when the thing didn't go off!
Here's my view. I was like a kid on christmas morning.

Oh, PS, the orange jerseys look a lot better on the players than I thought (and I already said they looked a lot better in person) and Billy looks a lot worse in person. Really bad.
