Update: The city that refuses to put enough traffic cops outside the park every year sent 5 fire trucks for a fish grease fire. Game on.

The fire started near a barbecue pit connected to the Orlando’s Caribbean Barbecue stand that serves the well known Cha-Cha Bowls, according to Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury News. The fire was extinguished quickly and the teams says the Cha-Cha Bowls will still be available for the game.
