As summer arrives in Coney Island, the Brooklyn Cyclones enter their busiest season. The team, affiliated with the New York Mets, sparks excitement with unique promotional events, including various theme nights and giveaways. Maimonides Park transforms into a vibrant venue, attracting larger crowds as temperatures rise. The atmosphere, described as "Most Fun Ballpark" in Minor League Baseball, combines the thrill of baseball with carnival-like entertainment, according to team manager Gilbert Gómez and broadcaster Justin Rocke, who emphasize the joyful environment of the games.
"It's a show," Cyclones manager Gilbert Gómez told Brooklyn Paper in April. "It's a fun environment to play in. The roller coaster behind and you got all those lights popping up at night, and you got good fans, good crowd when it gets warm."
"It's like [you're] calling baseball games at an amusement park," Justin Rocke, the team's lead play-by-play broadcaster and media relations specialist, said. "A carnival, that's sort of the vibe we've got here. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world."
