re: Is there a franchise in sports that over performs more than the Tampa Bay Rays?

They're quietly one of the best run organizations in probably all of sports, at least with what they have to work with.
The problem is Tropicana sucks and is way out of the way from Tampa, so nobody goes, thereby limiting their revenue.
If they had an established stadium in the city and a little more money from ownership, they'd probably have multiple rings

We went watch them a few months back. Stadium is terrible. But they do offer some good craft beers and food.

It’s not like St. Pete is a town of 10,000 people. Not to mention all of the other surrounding cities.
It’s still a very large and thriving metro area.

This is kind of a retarded take. Pinellas County has 1M people. Downtown Tampa is less than 30 minutes away. It's location isn't ideal, but the idea that it's terrible is overblown.

It's a shitty stadium, you're right. But, it's in the fricking city. Wth are you talking about? 
but seriously it could use a decent ball park. And in that area, they do a need at least a half domed park, they just don't have the money for it unfortunately.
