"Spend Three Days with the Tampa Bay Rays" Saint Petersburg by 850prc

Saint Petersburg Travel Guide: 307 reviews and 750 photos

Talking baseball.....

This St. Petersburg page is going to have a very narrow focus. There are certainly VT pages that can help you all learn more about St. Peterburg's beaches, harbor, city life and museums. My focus on this little page is BASEBALL, and the notion of spending two or three days in St. Pete (love the sound of that) watching the Tampa Bay Rays.

Yes, the team is called "Tampa Bay", but they actually play their home games in St. Petersburg, at Tropicana Field. Please look over my tips for ticket information, parking suggestions, sports bar ideas and other good baseball advice. I also have a "good hotel choice" for fans who'd like to walk to and from the park. So, enjoy my little "three days with the Rays" page here, and...

oh yes, GO RAYS!

Part of the 2010 Summer Concert series.... June 26th Saturday night, on stage after the game, it's the BARENAKED LADIES. Great fun, great band, excellent time.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:St. Pete is an easy "downtown" to negotiate, and of course - a huge plus is going to Rays games.
  • Cons:If you choose to be outside a lot in the summer, it is hotter than blue Hades.
  • In a nutshell:Spend three days with the Tampa Bay Rays. PLAY BALL.
