While we still don’t know with certainty if there will be a football season in 2020, Raymond James Stadium will be getting some modifications just in case according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times.

“Funded by the government’s CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security) Act, the first of three phases should be completed by Oct. 31 “in order to be open to the public,” according to an agenda for Wednesday’s meeting.”

Hillsborough County Commissioners will vote on the plan on Wednesday for the spending of the $10.4 million that would include hand sanitizing stations, an outdoor PA system and a touchless ticket entry system, among other things designed to help those in attendance decrease their chances of contracting the virus.

Besides helping to protect Bucs fans, the new upgrades would benefit those who attend USF Bulls games and also the upcoming NFL Super Bowl set to be played in Tampa in 2021.

The big question is, will anyone be in attendance to take advantage of the safety upgrades? According to Stroud the Bucs are expected to announce their ticketing and attendance plans for this season by the end of the week.
