Baseball. Blogging. Whenever.Tuesday, December 16, 2008Paging Ray GuyThey're playing a bowl game at Tropicana Field this weekend. As soon as I read this, a question popped into my head. Thankfully, the article answers it:Could a football hit the catwalks at the Trop? The highest catwalks — the A and B rings — are at least 142 feet above the field, far too high for any football. The C catwalk, which goes directly over the end zone in rightfield, is 99 feet up, leaving the only reasonably reachable catwalk as the D ring, which never crosses the field of play but sits at 59 feet in centerfield and slightly higher over the stands in rightfield.

Awesome. As a Trop regular, the catwalks add a somewhat fascinating dynamic to Rays games and their role/potential interplay during non-baseball sporting events is intriguing. Jim Caple did a video piece for ESPN.com during the Rays playoff run that included a little information about the catwalks.
