Tropicana stadium owners and the Florida Governor was sold a “Pig in a Poke” when the roof salesman said the fiberglass roof could withstand a hurricane force wind.
NOT a safe place for shelter
Everyone in there survived. Some may have gotten wet
the only one's there were first responders they stayed there just in case they were called after the hurricane. thankfully some areas of the stadium have a roof.
The rays just got themselves an outdoor stadium.
Weak stadium roof , that's what happens when you build on the cheap
so without the damage to the stadium, now what?? wth kind of question is that???
...when you make your roof out of paper
Explain to me how they were claiming Milton was a Category 3 storm with SUSTAINED winds of 125 mph, yet the top gust actually recorded was only 101 mph. Are they measuring those sustained wind speeds in the stratosphere or something?!?
Yes indeed
well now its a good time to give the rays a new stadium. preferably near Miami or near disney there is a lot of terrain near by.
Yeah I've been through plenty hurricanes
😱😱
don't fret folks President Trump will be there to help all the PEOPLES !
They have till the end of March to get it repaired or play Baseball somewhere else.
Money 💰 🤑

How many more 100-year events that happen twice in 5 years before FL is uninhabitable?
It’s not uninhabitable. Building practices need to be changed and there always needs to be a level of acceptance that you can lose your property and you may have to evacuate in order to survive some storms. Turning the entire Gulf of Mexico into a Nation Park isn’t the answer.

By that, I mean that the expectation of losing your home to a hurricane every 5 years will make insurance (rates) impossible and, unless building codes prevent 10-15 foot surges from flooding out your entire home, who wants to live like that?
@@Frankie_Zappa When it's your home and you're born and raised in it guess what you do? You rebuild it's a part of coast life
@@gabrielrice7330
I hear that, but when it becomes too cost prohibitive to continue, what do you do?
@@Royalle_with_Cheese idk man my families been on the Gulf coast for heck as long as anyone in it can remember
