I remember the game where they opened the new Box. Little ceremony in front of the pitcher's mound. Skip got on the mic and said stuff like "We listened to the fans. You wanted a roof. Roofs are expensive, but we built a roof. You wanted the bullpens on the field, just like the old Box. So we did that."

I swear to God I remember him specifically saying he did it because the fans wanted it to be as much like the old Box as possible. Somebody find the video.

And he had that dumbass baseball that opened up and had the “magic” of the old box.

This is the only video I could find. It's not the whole ceremony but it does show the baseball opening and fireworks.
