    A friend posted this on Facebook and I thought it was pretty cool. Fairly sure this is a newer Google Earth feature, giving better 3D renderings of buildings. If you scroll over Coors Field and zoom in all the way, you can see the scoreboard in center field, with a pretty old ad on it

    Someone looked up the game. Apparently from Aug. 26, 2006.

    Also just checked out some other places in Colorado. They have pretty much the entire CU-Boulder campus built in 3D (including Folsom), about half of Colorado State (no Hughes) and a few items at AFA, like the Cadet Chapel. This is pretty sick.
