Raymond James Stadium upgrade could boost Tampa Super Bowl bid

 

...

 

"The Tampa Bay community has a proven track record as a great Super Bowl host," Bucs co-chairman Bryan Glazer said in a statement. "We are thrilled to be a finalist for the Super Bowls in 2019 and 2020, and we look forward to the opportunity to show how well our communities work together to put on a great event."

 

How much would Raymond James' overall face lift cost? That's still being negotiated, with the county, the TSA and the Bucs willing to share in the investment.

 

"The uncertainty lies in the level and degree of improvement. To use an example, is it Rooms to Go or is it Ethan Allen?" Hagan said. "That's kind of where we are negotiating with the Buccaneers in determining the level of improvements and their commitment and financial involvement in these improvements. They've indicated a willingness to contribute to the overall upgrades to the facility, but in doing that, they want the improvements to be greater than what the Sports Authority may have initially envisioned."
