Phils vs Marlins from St Pete

by DevonBoy on Sep 6, 2010 4:45 PM EDT

I will be in St. Petersburg on business between 13 - 15 September and am VERY interested in traveling to Miami see any of the Phillies-Marlins games. I know that I can buy tickets online at mlb.com, no problem. But, does anyone know of any package deals from St Pete that include things like tickets, transportation, and/or food-drink, etc? Or, will I have to make the long drive and fend for myself?

drive

You do know that St. Pete to Miami is like a four hour drive, right?

worth it

Yeah, but come next week WHEN the Phillies are at the top of the division, a four hour drive there and then back may certainly be worth it, don’t you think? I looked into flying (only one hour TPA-MIA) and that’s possible for some more $$$$$

sure

If you have the time, definitely worth it, but saying “I’m in Tampa, and want to go see the Phillies in Miami” is akin to saying “I’m going to be in Pittsburgh, and want to see the Dodgers in Philadelphia while I’m there.”

If you're going to do that,

Fly from TPA-FLL. You can get a Southwest flight pretty cheap, and Fort Lauderdale airport’s actually an easier drive to the stadium than Miami airport is (they’re about the same distance, but the traffic’s a whole lot lighter).
