Baseball field on roof: a baseball field on the roof of a high school in New Jersey has caught the attention of some sports fans.
At Union City High School, baseball players who are a little bored can look off in the distance and have a great view of the surrounding area.
The $173 million field is four stories above ground level and is actually a combined baseball and football field.
While foul balls flying over the side of the roof are common–they’ve damaged cars but no people, yet–the school’s insurance pays for any damage the foul balls cause, according to Max Preps.
Bleachers sit 4,500 at the field. The high school, a three-year public school, has about 3,5000 students, and opened in Sept. 2009.
