While doing research, I ran across a book called "Stadium for Rent", about the pursuit of MLB for St. Pete-Tampa Bay. I read some excerpts, and it is quite fascinating stuff about all the behind-the-scenes maneuvers to get a team at the Suncoast Dome. The book is entirely online at: http://www.andelman.com/SFR/sfr-introduction.html

It is very long, but a lot of it sounds awfully familiar to what we are trying to accomplish.

BTW, they have a graphic (in Chap. 20, I believe) that shows a "Tampa Bay Mariners" logo! eek
