Claim: PETA placed a brick with a hidden message at San Diego's PETCO Park.

Status: True.

How much you want to bet that Peta sent the question and supplied the answer? Who cares about the code on a brick in a baseball stadium?

Looks like Newkirk took the brick that hit her face and put in Petco Park.

If they can find a way to throw a tantrum, they'll do it.

PetCo is shrugging it off as no big deal. If anything, it'll generate interest in their ballpark.

[Steven W.]

For all the $$$ it's an extremely weak stadium, too (not well thought out)

[sharktrager]

This will have even less value when the naming rights expire and some other firm outbids Petco for the privilege.

[WayneM]

Sounds like a plan "invented" by a 12 year old child.
