Imported Minnesotan Home Run Apple - All the Rage

That's right, not Washington state...Minnesota. Thanks to the efforts of two MN companies. Courtesy of FOX 12 Mankato.

With the apple in bad shape, that tradition was in jeopardy...Eric Saretsky, Director of Mets Construction says, "Its frame was so rotted that it's now going to sit as like a memorial in our Hall of Fame."

I guess you can say it was rotten to the core...Forgive me, I cant help myself.

The new Apple is four times the size of the original Home Run Apple, at 19ft in diameter and weighs in at 6,000 pounds. This Apple shoots up in the air in three seconds flat.
