This is a clip of the grand opening of the recently discovered lost Fresno civilization in Woodward Park. As you can see a lot of people turned out for the opening and were not disappointed.     The ruins took over a year to be dug out. Reportedly a dog walker stumbled upon them in the northeast corner of the park. They were completely unknown until now. This is an amazing discover and seems to have connections to similar structures found in other parts of the world. Fresno has a lot of history to be proud of. Allegedly, the Fresno Chamber of Commerce is very excited and is planning mass advertising of the ruins to draw new visitors to the city. Everyone was shocked upon learning of the discover in late 2016. It has been kept a secret from the public until now to prevent vandalism of the site. However, now that the site is open, security is at a high level.   A visitor at the Fresno Underground Gardens reportedly saw a staff member sigh upon hearing the news, throw up their hands, and run into a bathroom crying. Competition will surely be intense in the Fresno area among all the ruins sites vying for visitors. Dogs are not allowed on the site and reportedly the Fresno Woodward Park dog park is under consideration for a relocation due to the smell, which could detract from new visitation to the ruins. A couple of dogs owners have already been cited for allowing their dogs to run up to the ruins and urinate on the structure. News, Insight, and Entertainment to the Community of Fresno, Future Residents, and Nostalgic Natives from around the World. Like Nothing You've Heard Before! If you love Fresno, you are going to love this show!
