The Best NFL Stadium in America contest is put on by USA Today. A panel of writers and analysts come up with the list of nominated stadiums.
If you live in Tampa, how can you not love the home of our Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The vibe at Ray Jay is great. I used to cover the team (feels like a lifetime ago). I started covering the Bucs after they won their first Super Bowl in San Diego. It was the year Ronde Barber intercepted Donavan McNabb’s pass for a touchdown. (That game, of course, took place at The Vet. And his play turned the Vet silent.) But back to Raymond James Stadium…whether it’s a Bucs game or an amazing musical act, where else would you rather be?
What Makes Tampa’s Raymnond James Stadium The Best
The Pirate Ship makes is a one-of-a-kind. And as I mentioned, when I used to cover the team, stand down in the tunnel, peek out and watch the fly-over and watch the players run onto the field…noting was cooler. No stadium has a better vibe on Sundays.

Bucs 2022 Home Game Ticket Prices From Most To Least Expensive
Tom Brady’s return for at least one more season is keeping “get in” ticket prices in the triple digits. By “get in,” we mean the nosebleeds. The tickets that just get you in to the game. Brady’s announcement that he changed his mind and will play this season made the NFL start from scratch when they were creating the schedule this year. The moves were made to make sure the Bucs have some prime time TV coverage.
If you’re looking to go to a game this season and want to save some dough, you might want to wait until the end of the season. The Bucs’ first two games are by far the most expensive tickets of the season, while their final regular season game at Raymond James Stadium is kind of a bargain right now. Let’s break it down game by game, from least to most expensive on the secondary market websites.
