Tampa Bay Rays Bring Back Fan Favorite Ticket Deal & Other Giveaways
We can practically taste the freshly-made popcorn and hotdogs on the grill. The Tampa Bay Rays are getting ready for the 2024 season. After a heartbreaking end to the 2023 season, we hope the Rays have the same hot start as they did last year. The Tampa Bay Rays also announced a special ticket deal and giveaway schedule for the 2024 season.
The Rays recently announced they are bringing back a fan-favorite ticket deal for 2024. Not only will they have $10 tickets all season long, but they will also bring back Randy Land! For every Friday home game, you can sit behind our favorite outfielder in Randy Land. Each ticket will be eligible to redeem a free hot dog, domestic beer, or soda if Randy hits a home run. Full details are still coming from The Rays, but you can also expect to get a Randy Land t-shirt with your ticket purchase as well. Single-game tickets are currently available here.
After the 2023 season ended, there was some speculation of Randy possibly being moved to the LA Dodgers after a friendly encounter with Shohei Ohtani. But the Rays ended up trading Tyler Glasnow and Manuel Margot to the Dodgers last year. Randy recently signed a 1/year $8 million contract for 2024, almost double what he was making last year.

5 Things In Tropicana Field That Need To Be In The New Rays Stadium
The Rays Touch Tank
It’s a stadium must-see for the Rays. The sting ray touch tank is a tribute to the original Rays uniform and is the first of its kind at a professional sports venue. For the new stadium, we would love to see a bigger tank where maybe you can take standing photos against the glass with the sting rays.
Party In The Outfield
One of the Trop’s newest additions, The Budweiser Porch, out in centerfield is a great spot to hang before or during the game! The area features a long bar which makes it easy to get your beer and back to your spot. There’s also exclusive food stands here like Beer Battered Fries from Pig & Potato or the Hawaiian Hot Dog from Pacific Counter. Needless to say there definitely needs to be an outfield hang spot in the new stadium.
BallPark & Rec Lounge
Another great addition to the Trop that we would hate to see go. An arcade lounge indoors and outdoors that’s a great spot to hang before or after the game. It helps that there are two Tampa Bay Park and Rec locations so it will still feel fitting to include them in the new stadium.
Beans & Barlour
The most bougie milkshakes in baseball, but they are WORTH IT! Pro tip: they’re even better when you add whiskey! We can’t imagine the new stadium without this foodie staple.
The Rays Museum/162 Landing
Life-long and newbie Rays fans love to reminisce at the Rays Museum that features the history of the franchise since its inception. 162 Landing is another great spot to look back and remember one of the Rays most iconic wins. We hope the new stadium finds a way to incorporate Longo’s winning home runs and all the other milestones the Rays have reached since becoming a team back in the 90’s.
