Will It Catch On?

this is the latest craze that might start a trend, Cosmic Baseball!


the game is played at night, under black lights, with players using UV-reactive uniforms, balls, and bats all under high powered massive black light installations,

there are difficulties, despite the seemingly pitch-black atmosphere, players claim that after a bit of practice, playing under UV lights becomes second nature, as does seeing the ball, no matter how hard it’s hit or thrown, 

“It’s actually a lighter atmosphere than what most people would think,” said Chris Martin, owner of the Chili Peppers told MLB.com. “You can see everything extremely well.” Chill Peppers catcher Jacob Lee agreed, “If you can get everybody out there in practices and feel comfortable and have everybody relax while they’re playing, I think it’s going to make it a really good experience,” the whole thing looked way too hard and expensive to implement until the team found a lighting company to help them. J.W. Electric first developed a black light prototype and then went on to build a massive 18 500-watt black light installation, if it does catch on a small tip for anyone thinking of going, if you have hair use a anti-dandruff shampoo before attending! for more about the lighting have a look here.
