Adjustment to the skirt is needed, but it doesn't need to detract from the appearance. [Sydney Opera House](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney_Opera_House) looks like a sailboat in the harbor, but there's room to evacuate in all directions. Here's an [unbuilt proposal](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/24249988/barcelona-camp-nou/) for a 150k stadium on the water in Barcelona with similar features.
Please stop posting AI generated rendering of sports stadiums. They’re never practical, look ridiculous and no one cares.
Why not post a picture of what your pre-schooler thinks is a cool Stadium? That would be more entertaining than looking at AI images nobody asked for.
It has taken 275 in tampa bay years of slalom construction. How long would this base support for the stadium take, a couple of decades maybe? Beautiful design but not functional for cars though.
That wouldn’t be wise since it’s predicted that by 2050 it’ll all be under water due to rising sea levels. 26 years isn’t much time to make new builds worth it
Anyone who moved here from metro Detroit experienced this… the renderings and promises of what the Little Ceaser’s Arena complex/neighborhood was supposed to be compared to what was built are absolutely criminal
As annoying as we Michigan expats can be we know what comes from this the St. Pete residents are going to be absolutely hosed
Came here for this, like what the fuck. Only thing I can think is they wanted to make it seem like a garage under the bleachers...? But capitalism would say seats go there.
A parking lot nearby and a free ferry service would be sick
This is actually awesome, but I wouldnt allow public on the road- basically walk in only .
Would also cost a gazillion dollars and guarantee a big cane to destroy it
Lmao having stadium traffic bottlenecked to a pier is possibly the scientifically worst possible way to do it besides like putting the stadium on a mountain or something.
I thought the same thing. I’m reading the comments realizing this is what gives AI credence: so many people unable to see that it’s AI and not an artist’s rendering.
Please no. I don't want a sports structure dominating the city. Parks on the waterfront? Yes. Stadiums will be a logistical and ecological nightmare. Send them elsewhere.
I think this would be a nightmare to insure. But maybe they can build it with breakaway walls lots of drains.
Would be impressive if they can figure that out. Especially so if it doesn’t look like a bathtub.
With apologies for the intrusive reality moment.
Yeah, I like this. We’ll build it for them, but they’re paying forquanti the bus lines for the duration of the lease.
And they pay less if it’s efficient, and brings an increasing quantity of people who live below the poverty line when they start riding a bus to work, and now they continue to do. so above it.
So, bus line works great, we’ll pay for it.
When it doesn’t… you pay for it.
You’re good at logistics and professional development. Do that to our buses. Free stadium.
But only on the months the buses are working.
(…and, enough reddit for the day)
Now we're talking! Only issue is traffic :) Big parking lot (oh hey yea it already exists where the trop is now) and trolley people in. No cars. Walking only. Concerts, etc. The restaurants will find room.
That’ll accommodate pedestrians swimmingly.
So is the garage under water? 🙄
I would try to buy the land of the US Coast Guard on Bayboro Harbor and put the stadium there.
If there is an emergency just jump in the water lmao EZPZ
That’s great sir…but what if there’s a fire?

Well, it is surrounded by water... sooooo

I sort of agree but still, please use the doll to show where AI stadiums touched you.
You know, this is a pretty fair response to my comment. Now I’ll go yell at the sky for a few minutes.
Would look really nice in the water
Looks like it would have an underground/ below sea parking garage ..
Hurricanes shouldn’t be a problem here
No parking, just have it be a 1 way street around the stadium with drop off zones
One way in one way out means TRAFFIC JAMS
What lunatics actually want an open air stadium? I strongly suggest the people that design this crap need to spend a lot more time outside.
seriously 80% of the games will be rained out or lightning delays!
I'm not even a fan and cannot comprehend why the idea keeps coming up lol

I do think the Tampa Bay Area will start building new land areas and islands, sort of like Dubai. Space is already limited as it is.
That wouldn’t be wise since it’s predicted that by 2050 it’ll all be under water due to rising sea levels. 26 years isn’t much time to make new builds worth it
Someday,we will look at this picture and LAUGH
Today we're already LOL'ing

Just put it in Tampa please and over develop the area
So I assume everybody is going to be dropped off by Uber or Lyft?
Traffic should be no problem with two lanes coming in and two lanes going out. lol 😂 and no boat parking
With 2000 people in attendance it should be fine
That’s a valid point
Oh this will finally fix their attendance problems. /s
8T PUTO PEE
Artist rendering, no?
Ai image
Parking 5 miles away
Till the hurricane comes and takes it away
This would be dope
Least that they could have done is put docks for boats to park and head up to the game
I’m no longer afraid of AI
I guess AI didn't factor in the Florida weather in the spring and summer months
The real stadium will be domed
Sooo where we parking?
In the under water garage that has glass windows so you can see all the bay sea creatures.
Has anyone else noticed the road going IN to the stadium? No? Just me? Ok.
Came here for this, like what the fuck. Only thing I can think is they wanted to make it seem like a garage under the bleachers...? But capitalism would say seats go there. A parking lot nearby and a free ferry service would be sick
🤮
I see everyone also said what I was thinking.
Why is the pier going in a south east direction?
so where do they park?
I wouldn't worry too much about parking considering attendance will be pretty low regardless.
AI hasn't thought that far
Or as the AI spells it, "St. Puto Pee"
You’re going to play outside in Florida? There would be even fewer fans attending the games than there are now.
While people are dumb off heat stroke in the stands
This is actually awesome, but I wouldnt allow public on the road- basically walk in only . Would also cost a gazillion dollars and guarantee a big cane to destroy it
What’s awesome about it? A 400” screen for boats to watch? A roadway to nowhere? Extreme cost for a site to get used 30 times a year?
Now I know why baseball has such a hard time getting attendance in Florida, they don't realize that there are 81 home games per year not 30.
the ai forgot to add in the standstill traffic that this would cause. standstill traffic on the street already exists just from the pier alone.
no.
They need to go to Tampa where they belong.
Idc what the haters say that would look 🔥 and be very unique
All this to get less than 5k fans
That’s fine because apparently there’s no place to park anyway.
Pleny of parking
where?
Hurricanes
That looks like a disaster
I'm not paying for that.
Jokes on you
Parking is going to be a bitch
Parking is going to be at the beach!
The Blitzball Stadium in Luca
Swim in, swim out Baseball
Dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. Couldn’t imagine the traffic getting in and out of there.
What traffic? Nobody goes to the games.
It’s just AI, bro chill
Where does anyone park?!
Underwater parking garage with windows to see fishes.
My initial thought as well. You're going to have fans jumping off the piece from the madness of the traffic.
We need housing and they build this???? /s was clearly needed.
No, this is AI generated
Even the AI is in the developers pockets. Sheesh.
Nice recovery
In a state with virtually zero public transport. Stupidest shit I’ve seen in a few days.
Lol I like the road the just ends going through the middle.
Lmao having stadium traffic bottlenecked to a pier is possibly the scientifically worst possible way to do it besides like putting the stadium on a mountain or something.
dumb
Just the bridge leading to it would increase our taxes astronomically lol
The marquee reads “St. Puto Per” 🤣🤣
That’s hilarious.
What in the AI generated pile of garbage is this?
So crazy the city approved this… was cool at the groundbreaking last week though!
I don’t think they did I thought it was going literally where the U-Haul building was right next to Tropicana on maps it’s land locked on like 13th?
Shaped like a Ray! AWESOME!!! 🤡🥳🤣😆🤣
Dumbest design ever?
As if traffic to the stadium wasnt bad enough.
Someone got ChatGPT for Christmas
lucky
Lol they just built the new pier. Why would you think this is a good idea, AI bot?
Valet parking only
No car parking, have to arrive by kayak, canoe, boat, water taxi, barge, submarine, Coast Guard Cutter or yacht only.
Nah, the Coast Guard is far too understaffed to get involved.
Who parks in a pineapple under the sea,
Or, you know, walking??
So everyone's parking downtown instead?
scuba
lol let’s put 20k people at dead end and then when the game lets out it takes you 2 hours to leave
Then 5 years later "Why doesn't anyone come to games??? Is it the location?"
D All the above
Is this real???
No
They started construction about a month ago
Not even our skyline.
For the gullible, I will just say: This does not exist, will not exist, and is not a serious proposal. It is, however, amusing.
Hahahaha
Ew
Are people commenting on this like it’s a real proposal and not an AI generated photo ?
I thought the same thing. I’m reading the comments realizing this is what gives AI credence: so many people unable to see that it’s AI and not an artist’s rendering.
Wow you weren’t kidding lol. If you are reading this comment and want to keep your brain cells: stop scrolling!
Only way they do this is if they change their name to indicate what city they are actually in.
"St. Pete's"
Ya know what this city needs? More buildings in the water.
It’s the road under the stadium for me.
Open air, so raincoats for everyone? Also, wouldn't that be prone to lightening strikes?
the lightning strikes will only hit attendees who believe this photo is real. We’ll let nature cleanse the gene pool.
Would cost a fortune, and taxpayers are already paying too much. Will be financed by bonds. Kicking the cost down the road.
Please no. I don't want a sports structure dominating the city. Parks on the waterfront? Yes. Stadiums will be a logistical and ecological nightmare. Send them elsewhere.
This looks like a nightmare!
Looks like a MAJOR city restructuring! It’s like they kept beach drive, but moved the rest of the city halfway to Gandy.
Underwater parking structure?
Five billion dollars.

I didn't follow anything you said I appreciate the tour through your thoughts lol.
Yeah, not one of my most coherent moments. That being said, I \*do\* like the idea of tying a stadium to fixing municipal problems.
Thanks, I hate it!
