Tropicana Field, St. Petersburg, Florida (August, 2009)

 
This is hardly the case!  From the moment your walk in the main gate in centerfield you are surprised by every corner.  First it is a big open atrium area with plenty of natural light.  Then it is the fun, energetic corridors like you see here.

I also have to give a lot to the Rays fans.  They are a lot more excited about Rays baseball than I expected.  Finishing in last 9 straight seasons, the team was good last year (2008 ALCS champs) and it shows in the fans.

One of our first complaints about the place is that the signage directing you to your seats is not adequate.  The place is a bit of a maze and the only way to deal with that is lots of signs.  To their credit they did have plenty of staff posted at key points helping out.
