Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl
If you only know Tropicana Field as a joke, you never really knew it at all.
The roof, the catwalks, and the quirks are all easy jabs. But after this past year, I think a lot more people finally understood what Rays fans have known for a long time: it may not have been glamorous, but it took care of this team. And it took care of us, too.
Seeing the roof torn apart revealed so much more than a baseball field underneath. It showed what had been taken away, the part that made it feel safe, familiar, and ours.
Maybe that’s why so many of us loved it exactly as it was. It’s not perfect, but it’s ours.
And while I’m excited for the future, after having to live without it, I think a lot of us are going back with a deeper appreciation for what she means to us.
Thank you to everyone who brought her back, and then some.
See you tomorrow, sweet dome. #RaysUp
