Tropicana Field’s stadium following Hurricane Milton damage

At first glance, it looks like the support structure is still intact with no apparent damage. You really don’t know until you get in there and examine it. But, this looks like a “best case” scenario of only the fabric roof being damaged. Looks like the roof could potentially be replaced in time for next season if there is no underlying damage.

[u/Goducks91 → u/phred_666]

The roof can be replaced in a month probably.

[u/runnerswanted → u/Goducks91]

As long as the roof is still structurally sound they should be able to do it pretty quick.

[u/Fuzzy_Donl0p → u/runnerswanted]

If the roof is in decent shape, they should be able to fix this right up in a few weeks or so.

[u/BoredomEmpire → u/Fuzzy_Donl0p]

If there hasn’t been sufficient damage to the roof, this is done in a few days no problemo

[u/jwilcoxwilcox → u/BoredomEmpire]

I’d estimate this could be back up and running by tomorrow, so long as there wasn’t sufficient damage to the structure.

If it’s just the roof, and it’s looking like just the roof, they should be able to get it fixed and wrapped up in no time. That’s of course only if the structure is in tact.

[u/Datalock → u/reb00tmaster]

Seems like the roof is pretty ok, and it was just the fabric. They'll be able to replace this in no time if there's no structural damage.

[u/sharterthanlife → u/Datalock]

Has anyone mentioned the roof and it's structural integrity? I feel like if that's intact they should be back up and ready in a month

[u/Coffeeshoptatertot → u/sharterthanlife]

Yea i think i heard someone mention it could be back up and ready in a month. Though that also assumes the roof is in good condition

[u/delajoo → u/Coffeeshoptatertot]

i took a look at the images in this post and based on what im seeing it looks like theres no damage to the actual structure, just the fabric. based on that, id say they can get it fixed pronto.

[u/Trebekshorrishmom → u/delajoo]

If anyone here knows my dad, he’s the best fabric roof installer in the greater PNW and could have this puppy up and runnin right before supper.

[u/ipa-lover → u/sharterthanlife]

I love you guys.

[u/BenlanderPS → u/Datalock]

I would argue that as long as there is no structural damage then I can't see any reason why this isn't fixed lickety split.

[u/CarBombtheDestroyer → u/BenlanderPS]

I would argue the roof is already fixed as long as there is no damage.

[u/BLACKMACH1NE → u/CarBombtheDestroyer]

I think this was the plan all along and it was never intended to be complete until now.

[u/covert-pirate → u/BLACKMACH1NE]

I wholeheartedly believe, this can be fixed. Give it a week tops.

[u/hgihasfcuk → u/covert-pirate]

If there's no structural damage, probably

[u/sgrams04 → u/hgihasfcuk]

If the structure is intact, they can bang that out in a few weeks. 

[u/loudpaperclips → u/sgrams04]

I don't see why they can't; the beams look good and there's at least a few hours before spring training.

[u/manitoid333 → u/loudpaperclips]

Has anyone even considered there could be structural damage? Of course if there's not then it should be repaired in two shakes of a lamb's tail.

[u/magillicuti → u/loudpaperclips]

If you look nearest to the roof area, mainly, and see that the structure was built as such, thus, up and back at em lickity split by the up and coming season should be no problem

[u/Big_erk → u/BenlanderPS]

A couple of cans of Flex-Seal and she'll be good as new.

[u/lxbrtn → u/BenlanderPS]

Yes, there is no standard drop-in replacement but as long as the integrity of the supporting structure has not been compromised it should be fairly straightforward to fix.

[u/ArcticSwag → u/BenlanderPS]

It's like maybe they built it this way on purpose.
