ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — What's better than watching the Rays dominate at Tropicana Field? Watching the Rays dominate at Tropicana Field with a foot-long pretzel dog in your hand.
That's just one of the mouthwatering new menu items baseball fans can grab during the team's upcoming 25th anniversary season.
Rays opening day is still a few days away, but 10 Tampa Bay got a sneak peek at the new food coming to concession stands throughout Tropicana Field in 2023.
Foot-long pretzel dog
