Raffle Square

Raffle Square is the location where the 1912 Columbia Raffle takes place in BioShock Infinite.

History
Raffle Square serves as the location for an annual carnival that celebrates Columbia's ideals as well as the city's seccession form the Union. In addition to the raffle, there is singing, carnival treats, and other forms of entertainment. While it seems innocent enough to the average spectator, some of these ideals include the stoning of captive blacks, Irish, or other lower class citizens.

BioShock Infinite
When Booker DeWitt arrives at the square, he was asked to pick up a baseball with a number on it. The "lucky number" is 77, which wins him the raffle. Booker is then given a choice to throw a baseball at either an interracial couple, the host of the Raffle Jeremiah Fink, or just refusing to throw it at all. Before striking either target, the crowd notices the brand on his right hand, the mark of the False Shepherd. The police attempt to apprehend Booker, but, with a little help from his Sky-Hook, he manages to elude his captors and escape, causing the police to pursue him throughout Raffle Square and on to the Comstock Center Rooftops.

Trivia

 * The song that Jeremiah Fink leads the crowd in singing is "Goodnight, Irene" by Huddie Ledbetter. This is potentially anachronistic, as although the song was reportedly sung by Ledbetter in Louisiana as early as 1908, it was not recorded and published until 1934, and was not commercially successful until a later recording by a different artist was released in 1950.
 * Considering the sheer size of Columbia, the number of residents which live within, and the significance of what the annual raffle represents in Columbian history; there should be multitudes of people attending the raffle. There is, however, a crowd barely befitting of the celebrations.
 * If Booker walks to the part with hopscotch drawings on the ground, there are children reciting the rhyme about Songbird.
