    As a Canadian the only thing I could think of for Tampa Bay was lightning. I don’t think I know more than 2 or 3 baseball teams.

    2% club here. Immediately thought of the baseball team Tampa Bay Rays and got purple first. Yellow was ironically the hardest for me because I didn't know that kitty can mean fund. Reverse rainbow without even trying.

      I immediately thought of Rays when I saw Tampa Bay, but couldn't connect Geometry to that group.

    A ray is a line that has one fixed endpoint and goes on forever in some direction. So like half of a line in some weird way. I think they might be drawn like vectors so I can see the confusion but vectors have two ordered fixed points.

    Reverse rainbow for me today! Fun one!

    As a baseball fan, the first thing I think of when I see Tampa Bay is Rays. Helped me make quick work of this one.

    Rays was all I could come up with and thought it was a real stretch and surprised I was right.

    A light red herring? Shall we say a pink herring?

    87% of people found purple last.
    I suspect the majority of them (including me) did not understand the link...

    I thought of Bucs or Buccaneers for Tampa Bay (football). That didn't work for anything else. I forget about that sport with the little round ball. 😉

    Hard, but not artificially so.

    I’ve literally never heard of any of the complete phrases for the Fund one. The others made sense for poker or some gambling but I had no clue what a kitty fund, pool fund, pot fund, or purse fund were.

      They aren’t funds in the sense of a phrase, they’re just synonyms for fund. You would say a pool of money, or you might add money to the pot. The kitty is a slang term for the money that people put in for some kind of betting.
