This is a photographic negative of some kids in the stands of the Oakland Oaks ball park. The kids have created a "fort" by stacking up the seat cusions that other people have rented. There is writing on the cusions that states, "Rented Not Sold." A total of three kids are using the fort. A few other fans are still in their seats but it appears that most are leaving or have already left the ball park. In the background a line of people can be seen walking toward the exits.
