Description:
Home of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and at one time, the Tampa Bay Lightning of the NHL. It was originally called the Sun Coast Dome and later the Thunder Dome. This was a great hockey venue for a good hockey team, but this is a terrible baseball venue for a terrible baseball team. I went there last year when I was staying on Treasure Island for vacation. They got beat by New York, which was one of the teams that they actually played well against last season. I love the coloring of the place and the design, but I just don't like the idea of playing baseball and football in a dome down here. I love the Falcons, and I'm glad they don't have to share with the Braves anymore, but I just don't get it. The climate is awesome down here and in Atlanta. If they can play baseball and football out in the open in New York, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia, and Boston, why can't they play out in the open down here? It gets just as hot and humid up there in the summer. I'll give Detroit and Minneapolis a free pass on this, but why we have domes in Atlanta, Tampa, and New Orleans is beyond me. Don't give me the hot and humid excuse either, Miami never used a dome and Houston has done away with theirs.
