Pros: Really cool pirate ship and neat looking snack areas
Cons: Really long schlep from your car....
The Bottom Line: If you have the opportunity to go to a game here, do it - the stadium is cool.

| CDFrye120's Full Review: Raymond James Stadium |
As a resident of the Tampa Bay area I can't help but be proud of Raymond James Stadium.
The only "con" involved here is the walk from your car - in our case up and over the walkway that comes from the Yankee Stadium across the street. But I figure I can use the exercise anyway, so I'll move on...
When you enter the stadium the first thing you'll notice is the really cool pirate ship in the north end zone area. This is really neat for little kids - during her visit with her dad our seven year old loved it and went crazy every time the cannons went off after a Buccaneer touchdown. Happily that was several times during that particular game! The snack area looks like a boat dock and is really neat looking, though costly. From what I understand it is possible to get "Buccaneer Cove" for parties and such, but I've never looked into that.
The seats are really comfortable, much like movie seating. This is, of course, a huge step up from the benches that our old Tampa Stadium boasted.
The view was great from where we were sitting - really close to the field. Even got to see Warren Sapp sticking his hands into the opposing teams water cooler -Bad Warren, BAD!
The food, as with all stadiums, is outrageously pricey. I can't really complain though because with a stadium you have to take this as a given.
