Gleek Arena

Gleek Arena is Blaseball stadium in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is the current home of the Canada Moist Talkers.

The stadium is also well known as the home of the Belligerent Phlegm Receptacle.

Name

Since 2020, the stadium has been named for its largest sponsor Gleek Telecoms. Previously, it was known as Spittle Park, named for the Spittle Candy Company who contributed $21.2 million for the arena's construction in exchange for 35 years of naming rights.

The stadium is affectionately dubbed the "Moist Zone" by fans of its home team.

Entrance

The way that the Moist talkers enter Gleek Arena is as convoluted as the methods by which the team produces the 4 gallons of spit that they are required to produce daily to be part of the team. The first obstacle is the engineering marvel that is Moat Gleek, a moat that is fed off a series of sluices that transport the spittle that lands on the floor of the stands. The moat was constructed in the shape of the ducts of the salivary gland. During a good game it is not uncommon for the moat to overflow and create small tidal waves. The moat is such a good model of the salivary gland that since its erection cases of mouth cancer have gone down 69%. Next is the showers, nothing more needs to be said about those. Lastly is the traditional slip and slide, a 300 foot monument to the purity of Blaseball, and the love of the game. It is filled with plenty of protein to make sure that it foams just like the mouths of our dear Moist Talkers.

The Under-Arena

The Under-Arena was discovered when THE MAW retired into a deep cavern below Gleek Arena at the beginning of Season 2. It is speculated that the flooding caused by THE MAW's retreat induced flash-flooding in the caverns which eroded much of the small passages inside the bedrock sheet into larger, more accessible passages. This has led to disputes that the Gleek Arena was actually built on top of an older subterranean arena of unknown origin.

Notable Features

Wet-Ghouls

Ancient Corpses categorized as wet-ghouls can be found strewn haphazardly around the halls. They are semi-animate skeletons with extraneous features such as: calcified stone,damp algae, and sheets of fungus. These features usually result in the mouth resembling a gaping maw resplendent with drool, strands of plant matter, and rotting pieces of cloth. Exploration reports record that Wet-Ghouls will stalk, corner, and attack anyone that enters the Under-Arena.

Grand Atrium

The largest cavern in the Under-Arena is a grand atrium with lines etched into the floor into an esoteric pattern. There have also been sightings of creatures that regularly brawl inside the cavern.

Urban Legends

Fan culture dictates that any who infiltrate the lowest level of Gleek Arena and find a door marked with a water droplet must go through it and descend into the labyrinthine depths of the Under-Arena.
