Over past two weeks, the Fan Express took its first groups of Tampa Bay Rays and Miami Marlins fans to Tropicana Field and Marlins Park, ushering them in FOX Sports Florida style
to their ballparks.
“The Rays Fan Express was a hit and the feedback from
Rays fans has been terrific," said Larry McCabe, Tampa Bay Rays Senior
Director of Broadcasting. "Everyone particularly enjoyed the excitement of
traveling to the ballpark as a group in such a unique and highly visible way.
On behalf of the Rays...thank you to our partners at Sun Sports."
“We are thrilled with the immediate success of the Marlins
Fan Express, and have received overwhelming reviews from the groups who had the
opportunity to utilize it during the previous homestand," said Matt
Britten, Miami Marlins Director of Marketing. "We are looking forward to
integrating the Marlins Fan Express into future games and special events at
Marlins Park.”
The FOX Sports Florida Girls were on hand, as
well as team mascots, a camera crew and more, to enhance the trip for riders.
Plans are underway to roll out the Orlando Magic Fan Express and Miami HEAT Fan Express this upcoming NBA season for nearly half of each team's home schedule. With the bus fueled up and ready to roll, look out for FOX Sports Florida and Sun Sports coming to an arena near you.
