It was visible around the world.
The sunset conjunction of Jupiter (left) and Venus (right) in 2012 was visible almost no matter where you lived on Earth.
Anyone on our planet with a clear western horizon at sunset could see them. That year, a creative photographer traveled away from the town lights of Szubin, Poland to photograph a near closest approach of the two planets.
The bright planets were then separated by only three degrees and his daughter struck a humorous pose. A faint red sunset still glowed in the background. Jupiter and Venus are together again this week after sunset, passing within a degree of each other about two days from today.

@27dch@wonder_city_@chicagobars I don't when, but it definitely was. As I recall, you could see from the north end zone concourse to the admin building. There was parking at the field level, too. It could have been player/staff/admin, but maybe some premium, too.
