Now ALL Of The Lights Are Out On The Sunshine Skyway Bridge

Geno Geno November 17th

Last week we told you about repairs needed on the Sunshine Skyway. They didn’t know exactly what happened, but something caused half of the lights to go out on the bridge on the Pinellas side. Turns out it was a transformer that was damaged, according to the Tampa Bay Times. Well, 2020 being 2020, while workers were doing their thing to get all the lights back on, ALL of them went out.

Lights on the Manatee side should come back on tomorrow, according to the article. But the Pinellas LED lights may take another month. [Source: TBT]

  • Walt Disney World

    Over in Orlando, Walt Disney World is doing a 3 or 4 day Flex Ticket deal. That gets you in to the parks for about $58 a day. That deal ends December 18 but you can't use your days during Thanksgiving week November 21-28.

  • Legoland

    Over at Legoland in Winter Haven, you can grab an annual pass starting on November 25 for $99.99. That's almost half price... $80 off.

  • Busch Gardens

    Here in Tampa, Busch Gardens is offering a 40% off deal on single day tickets. That's $63.99. Or grab a day ticket for just $9 more - that saves you 60%. Or get the Fun Card. It gets you in the park for the rest of this year and 2021 for $79.99 - that's 30% off.
