ResortPass

Have you seen the local celebrities out dribbling in Tampa? That’s because for a third time the NCAA Women’s Final Four is coming to the city of Tampa. Yes, we’re ready some some basketball, but we’re also ready for some serious economic activity.

Last year, the Associated Press reported that NCAAW Final Four fans injected more than $22 million into the Columbus, Ohio economy. Back in 2008, fans in Tampa produced more than $19 million in economic activity, according to the Tampa Bay Sports Commission.
