Viral images show Dodger Stadium parking lot flooded, but it's just an optical illusion

  • Recent social media posts showed images of Dodger Stadium parking lots seemingly submerged.
  • The flooding was actually an optical illusion caused by light reflecting on the wet surface.
  • A similar phenomenon occurred in 2005 after a storm, with no actual flooding.
  • The stadium was only soaked from rain, not flooded, according to a Dodgers spokesperson.
  • Viral images of supposed urban flooding have been debunked in the past.
