You Can Pay To Go On A Cruise With The Buccaneers

Author Richie Ortiz

Nowadays a lot of people are having to choose what they spend their money on. For example, if you are a fan of a certain team, some would have to choose between going to meet the players at an event or going on vacation. Not if you’re a Buccaneers fan though! Now you can do both at the same time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Fan Cruise.

Yesterday the Bucs announced that their Tampa Bay Buccaneers Fan Cruise will be setting sail from Fort Lauderdale to the Caribbean from April 4th to the 8th next year. The trip is being set up by Celebrity Cruises with fans having the chance to hang out with some of the players from the present and past like Tristan Wirfs, Martin Gramatica, and Super Bowl MVP Dexter Jackson who were all on the inaugural cruise. This year will also include more players joining in on the fun such as Antoine Winfield Jr., Rachaad White, and Cade Otton along with a special guest appearance by Hall of Famer, Derrick Brooks.

If you’re worried about what you will be doing for the 4 days on the cruise, don’t worry there will be more than enough activities to choose from. You could dance around with the Buccaneers Cheerleaders, “Raise the Flags” with the players, play them in a Water Volleyball tournament, go behind the scenes with Bucs beat reporters, and of course party and drink with other fans and players at the various cocktail parties throughout the 4 day cruise. The cruise will also visit Key West, Florida, as well as Nassau, Bahamas for fans to experience the Caribbean. Sound like fun to you?!

If you are interested, you can call 1-800-975-7112 to book your trip or simply go to www.tampabaybucscruise.com to save your spot. You can also get more information as well as the benefits offered to Tampa residents interested in booking a Celebrity Cruises vacation on game day by stopping by the Celebrity Cruises booth at Bucs Beach.

Beat The Heat: 7 Best Indoor Spots To Watch The Bucs In Tampa

Football season is here! While game tickets are much cheaper than last year because of Tom’s retirement, it’s still almost better to watch the game at these Tampa spots. First, you get to beat the heat and watch the game in some AC. Secondly, you’ll most likely be able to see what else is going on in the league that day. Lastly, while we said game tickets are cheaper this year, you’ll still cough up a lot of dough for parking and stadium food. Save some money by just drinking a couple of beers at these places! These are our favorite spots in Tampa to watch a Bucs game when we can’t make it to Raymond James Stadium.

As fun as it is to hear the canons fire for touchdowns, making it to most home games can be challenging. Not to mention that we would turn into a puddle of sweat before the first quarter is even over. Sometimes we prefer to be able to sit down, relax, and still enjoy some Buccaneer football in an air-conditioned environment. And since we love our Bucs here in Tampa, we’ll always be surrounded by fellow fans.

Able to make it to the game? Check out our favorite restaurants that are super close to Raymond James Stadium and skip the overpriced stadium food!
