Posted: 08.27.2002 And I thought our insurance premiums were bad
This is just a wee bit scary -- Raymond James Stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has lost its insurance. "An independent insurance consultant told the Tampa Sports Authority to expect a 30 percent increase in premiums and no guarantee that terrorism attacks will be covered...the sports authority paid $266,167 in premiums this year for property, liability and auto insurance..."
 there goes the ticket prices! ¤ ¤ credit: Alteredboy | 08.27.02 at 04:35 PM | link- -this ¤ ¤ Damn that sucks..... yeah I'd say that it'll be the good ol' fans who'll have to pay the rest. ¤ ¤ credit: jarbury | 08.27.02 at 05:10 PM | link--this ¤ ¤The funny thing is, over 90% of the stadium is sold out to season ticket holders and the waiting list is like 4-5 years (there are over 75,000 people on it). And you have to buy at least 2 years worth of season tickets to get them, plus deposit, I believe -- so they can't jack the prices up for those who have already paid. I fully expect a Coke to cost $10 and a beer to cost $20 soon though... ¤ ¤ credit: robyn | 08.27.02 at 06:17 PM | link--this ¤ ¤Like Chris Rock says "they shouldn't call it insurance, they should call it 'in case shit happens'..." That's insane. ¤ ¤ credit: Carla | 08.27.02 at 09:03 PM | link--this ¤ ¤I must be the most oblivious person in the world! I just realized you were from Tampa!
