Tropicana Field Remains Cherished by Rays After Hurricane Milton Displacement
Tropicana Field, despite its unappealing appearance and indoor atmosphere, is cherished by the Tampa Bay Rays, particularly after a period of displacement caused by Hurricane Milton.

Minot Bismarck Dickinson, ND, October 26, 2026 —
Tropicana Field remains cherished by the Tampa Bay Rays despite an appearance described as unappealing and an indoor atmosphere. That attachment is especially notable following a period when the team was displaced because of Hurricane Milton, according to the available account.
The account offers no further details about the displacement. It does not say when it began or ended, where the Rays went during that period, or what arrangements were made. It also does not describe any specific changes to Tropicana Field or explain how the hurricane affected the venue.
The reasons for the team’s attachment are not detailed beyond the contrast between its fondness for the field and the description of its appearance and indoor setting. No statements from players, team officials, or other sources were provided, so the account does not establish how individuals associated with the Rays explain that connection.
The information available therefore supports a limited conclusion: Tropicana Field is described as a place the Rays cherish, particularly in the context of their displacement caused by Hurricane Milton. Further details about the circumstances, timing and the team’s experience during that period were not provided.
