Baseball is always better with the dome open (unless it’s raining!). Here are some cool facts about a fun and well-known feature of our city:
- It takes under 25 minutes to open the Blue Jays dome
- It only costs $100 every time Roger’s Centre opens or closes its roof. This is pretty impressive since Japan’s Fukuoka dome costs a whopping 10-Grand to do the same!
- The dome itself weighs apx. 21 million pounds
- It is operated by 54 motorized “bogeys” (carts)
- The size of the dome covers nearly 8 hectares
