SI.com: Raymond James Stadium No. 18
October 15th, 2008Joe enjoys going to Bucs games. Who wouldn’t? But when Joe hears people rave about the CITS, Joe is confused. Joe doesn’t mind the CITS, but doesn’t quite understand why people think the stadium is so great.
Joe doesn’t think the CITS is much better than OK.
Well, it seems others agree with Joe.
In a fan survey conducted by Sports Illustrated, the gameday atmosphere at the CITS was ranked No. 18 in the NFL. The categories included affordability and food, tailgating, team quality, atmosphere and accessability. The highest the CITS ranked in any category was team quality (No. 14); the worst was accessability (No. 23).

The ship is too Disney for me although I like the cannon fire when we get in the Red Zone. I’d like to see a stadium that teams are afraid to come in and play. It gets loud at Ray Jay but if it where a complete bowl it would be very loud!
A real Bowl such as The SWAMP is feared unless your Ole’ Miss apparently. 🙁
