Giant haunted attraction taking over Al Lang Stadium this October

Get ready to scream, St. Pete. When the Rowdies play, fans are going wild and rowdy in support of the soccer squad. At the end of the October, the screams will be those of terror. Of course, we suppose we’ve heard some high pitched screams when the ref makes a subjectively bad call.

Stadium of Screams and Fall Festival officially takes place October 25-27 at Al Lang Stadium. Proceeds from the event benefit both St. Pete Free Clinic and the Tampa Bay Rowdies Foundation.

What can you expect? Here’s what the event organizers say: “Experience sheer terror as you step into the darkest timeline where some of Hollywood’s most horrific creations are hell-bent on making sure you leave screaming.”

The spooky fun takes pace on Friday October 25 at 6pm, and on Sunday, October 27 at 1pm. Admission is $8 for adults, and $5 for kids ages 3-17. Kids 2 and younger enjoy free admission.

What happened to Tampa’s streetcars? An artist mapped the forgotten lines.

Lawyer by day and cartographer by night, Jake Berman has now mapped over 150 transit systems. His latest creation traces Tampa’s streetcar lines during the 1920s.

The 10 Most Expensive Homes in Sarasota

What all 10 homes, including the three newcomers, share are a prime waterfront location and lots of square footage.

No. 8: $13,200,500

132 N. Washington Drive, St. Armands

Owners: Jeffrey and Mary Penny Vinik | New on the list

Hedge fund legend and Tampa Bay Lightning owner Jeffrey Vinik and his wife, Mary Penny, own this showstopping mega-mansion on St. Armands Key. One of the largest homes in Sarasota, it was reportedly nicknamed by neighbors the S.S. Magellan for its cruise ship proportions and for the $500 billion Magellan Fund Vinik managed in the ’90s. Vinik bought two existing mansions and razed them to build this stark-white, ultramodern complex of 24,040 square feet (16,245 indoors). The home includes eight bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, five half baths and a swimming pool on Sarasota Bay with a view of the Ringling Bridge. Vinik is also developing the $3 billion mixed-used Water Street Tampa project and is an investor in ventures from skin care to radiation protection gear for soldiers to video game headsets, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

Race to the Championship Playoffs – Oct. 1-2

WESTERN CONFERENCE CLUBS COME INTO VIEW OF POSTSEASON BERTHS AHEAD OF MIDWEEK ACTION

4. Tampa Bay Rowdies
Record:16-6-9, 57pts
Playoff Odds Clinched
Projected Final Position: 4th (24 percent)
Max Points Available: 66pts
Magic Number: N/A
Upcoming: @LDN (10/4)
Tampa Bay’s rally to earn a point on the road despite being down to 10 men was the best indicator we have seen of the club’s new-found ability this season to get it done away from home. If it can take care of business on Friday night against Loudoun United FC, it will put pressure on the teams around it to match them on Saturday night.

16. Loudoun United FC
Record:7-16-6, 27pts
Playoff Odds <1 percent
Projected Final Position: 16th (30 percent)
Max Points Available: 42pts
Magic Number: 25pts
Upcoming: vs. PIT (10/1), vs. TBR (10/4)
The end is nigh for United, which can’t quite be mathematically eliminated on Tuesday night against Pittsburgh after Birmingham took nothing from its visit to Swope Park, but could be by the end of Friday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rowdies.
