My mom lives about 25 minutes from the stadium. Carpet sucks, obstructions suck, cowbells suck, roof isn't up to modern day technology, and for gods sake the building is f***ing tilted.
Maybe they assume it will bring more attendance? They'll be wrong I'll bet, as pro sports typically don't matter much in Florida.
Regardless, we'll agree to disagree on the stadium. The only baseball park worse might be the one in Oakland. I'd venture to guess that if you googled ballpark rankings, the Trop will be bottom 2.
