    Tampa Bay Rays tap locals for free City Connect jersey concert

    Campbell Skatepark is just on the other side of the interstate from Tropicana Field, but the obsession with skateboarding baked into the storytelling behind the Tampa Bay Rays’ new City Connect jersey is odd.



    Other than that, however, everything about the team’s new uniform is the stuff of superfan dreams. The duds—featuring green and blue neon and a flaming Tampa Bay front—are the best of the league’s City Connect series so far, and the team is leaning on local favorites to celebrate the release, too.


    Furry Sunshine City punk-rock band Wolf-Face headlines a free concert that includes heavy-hitting rock outfit Florist, Shevonne ( who starred in the City Connect video ), and alt-pop band Crownz. DJ Fresh soundtracks the drone show at the end.

    There's no cover for the Tampa Bay Rays City Connect Celebration happening Thursday, May 2 at the St. Pete Pier from 5 p.m.-10 p.m.
