Instead of a 7th inning stretch

Everyone in the stadium gets huge balloons. Thousands of thousands of balloons. The environmentalist in me cringed a bit, but... balloons are fun, so I got over it without too much hassle. They just don’t think along “those lines” so much in Japan, and I’m probably not going to change the entire culture’s ideology in the duration of my trip, so I just figure “I got to see more than ten thousand balloon on my birthday.”
