Happy to see them stay but it should have been in Tampa

There will be no improvement in attendance with it going in St Pete

It is selfish of me but I hate Tampa the city but love the beach and St. Pete, I would never go to a game in Tampa. I fly into Tampa then go straight to St. Pete. Treasure island, Madeira, Gulfport, Pass-a-grille

City/County paying for half. Wow.

It says its going to be built near the existing stadium. WHERE? The parking lot?

All that money to still draw less than 100 fans per game.

Hopefully by Fergs, the best sports bar complex. It’s a wild place

I totally agree kid St Pete is much nicer than Tampa

But Tampa has nearly twice the population as St Pete (I think) and definitely more ppl would attend the games if the stadium were there

Bucs get plenty of support in Tampa
Lightning get plenty of support in Tampa
There has to be a reason the Rays do not and most likely it's the stadium location in my opinion

Yeah it’s purely a population issue

Rays have actually been spending lately though

They gave wander that huge contract (that they will likely get out of) and paid Eflin

Also it’s not that surprising they are paying half, every fukkin sheriff SUV I see down there is a Tahoe. Those things are not cheap at all

Same sentiment here. I’d rather go to a Clearwater or Dunedin minor league game when in the area, as it stands now.
If the Rays play in a new development in St Pete, I’d go check it out.
