With the race for mayor heating up, the Rays stadium has come into play. One of the people running for mayor in St. Petersburg, Scott Wagman said that is he is elected he would not require the Tampa Bay Rays to build their new stadium within the city limits. Wagman says that as long as the stadium in built in a place that would benefit the local community and also make the most revenue, it would not need to be in St. Petersburg. The current mayor, Rick Baker, said that the stadium must be built within the city limits. With each mayor’s extreme point of view this could make or break the election. Building a new snazzy stadium could help bring a new crowd to the stadium and drive up revenue. What is important that the stadium is in a good location and has easy access and lots of different transportation options for the fans who are going to the game. There are all sorts of teams that do not have a home field that goes along with their time name for example the New York Jets and the New York Giants play in New Jersey. Just because a team is in a different location does not mean it will affect the fans or how they play.
