Tampa Bay Bucs Football - Enjoy the Game Day Experience

One of the best events around the State of Florida is attending a Tampa Bay Buccaneer Football Game! From pre-game tailgating, grilling, touchdowns, to post game celebrations, it's a truly fun and unique experience. And how about the vivid colors within the stadium? The Buccaneer fans really love to show their spirit.

Check out the crowds heading into Entry Area C, as it is only fifteen minutes to kickoff. This is the first home game of the new NFL Season. Go Bucs Go!

Hey! They got this girl on TV and the Jumbo Stadium TV Screens. She did a little dance and smiled to the camera. Just a small slice of the myriad of fan experiences that happen on Buccaneer Game Day!

Defense! It is first and goal from the one yard line, as New Orleans was trying to make a game of it. On this play, Saint's Mike Karney scored New Orleans' first offensive touchdown of the season on a one-yard run late in the third quarter.

Your in, and just in time for the Buccaneer player introductions. Here, you see the Buccaneer Cheerleaders forming a funnel for the players to run though, as the flags wave along side. The Buc players get pumped, do high fives, and express themselves to the fans delight.

Each game has a new and unique opening ceremony. Today the big flags were on display, first the Buccaneer flag and then the United States Flag. Both giant flags were carried, opened, and gracefully displayed by nearly a hundred people each.

On this sunny Sunday afternoon we found the Buccaneer Cheerleaders signing their Calendars, hats, shirts, and footballs for the fans. Cheerleader signing areas were located on both south and north entrance areas. Also, four bands were playing live music, as bands were performing in each of the North, West, East, and South entrance areas.

Yes it is game time! And on this day the Bucs come out sharply and get an early 21-0 lead on the New Orleans Saints. The inspired fans were loud and rowdy, giving the Bucs Players a nice boost on this seasons first home game. A great football game with plenty of fan support!

Your game day experience begins outside, where the pre-game festivities are as much fun as the game itself. With the sounds of music, lively people, and the pre-game TV coverage, people really make the most of the hours leading up to game time. Grilling, tossing the football, adult cocktails, and hanging with friends.

Let's head in and find our seats, as it is 30 minutes before kickoff. Here is a view of the southeast corner of Raymond James Stadium, the big winding stairs in the background are officially known as Entry Ramp C.
