Postcard from Tampa, day 2
Posted on 12.28.08
CommentsGreetings from Tampa!
I came to the right place to sweat out a cold. Have been coughing like a coalminer and sucking down Robitussin since arriving Friday. But at least the weather’s been nice – two straight days in the 80s.
Went to the second half of the Bucs-Raiders game Sunday as a dry run for the Outback Bowl. As the final seconds ticked off the Bucs’ season, the crowd booed. But it wasn’t a lusty, Philly-type boo. More like something you’d hear at a Dodgers game.
Raymond James Stadium is a great setting, except for the cannon blasts from the pirate ship. But that will be muzzled Thursday, when it’s supposed to be a little cooler. They’re saying low 70s.
Send cough drops.
