From Wikipedia
Tropicana Field is a domed multipurpose stadium located in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States. "The Trop" is the home of the Tampa Bay Rays of Major League Baseball (MLB). The stadium is also used for college football, and from December 2008 to December 2017 was the home of the St. Petersburg Bowl, an annual postseason bowl game. The venue is the only nonretractable domed stadium in the MLB. Tropicana Field is the smallest MLB stadium by seating capacity when obstructed-view rows in the uppermost sections are covered with tarps as they are for most Rays games.
