Step Right Up: The Baseball Theme Park is Coming to NY

From the Yankee website, a glimpse of either heaven or hell.

Yogi Berra and Derek Jeter have been named the official spokesmen for the 2008 DHL All-Star FanFest, which will be held July 11-15 at the Jacob K. Javits Center in New York.



They're calling it "an interactive baseball theme park."

To celebrate, an apparently Disney automated Jeter says this:

"DHL All-Star FanFest is a unique event that will bring excitement and enjoyment to baseball fans of all backgrounds. DHL All-Star FanFest is the largest baseball fan event in the world, and I can't think of a better stage to hold this type of once-in-a-lifetime experience than New York City."

Wow. A baseball theme park...
