Havent been to a Bucs game since they lost to the Falcons back in 08 Im guessing or when I was a lot younger. I am a NFL football fangirl and a 49ers fan, but since I live in Florida, the Bucs are an amazing and fun team to watch and I also support them. Went there for the last game of the 2016-2017 season (Panthers @ Bucs), it was such an incredible experience that I cannot explain with words. The stadium was great, we got good (and free) seats because of my Dads co-worker, the food was good, stadium was clean, fans were great and supportive and good to talk to. This was probably the best experience I have ever had in my 16 years of living. Just the thrill of being in a NFL stadium and seeing the famous players right in front of you rather than on TV is just beyond words... Also I never realized that the field looks really small compared to on TV, because in the stadium the field is right in your eye view. Bucs made some great and exciting plays and the crowd was very loud and red jerseys were everywhere. One side of the stadium chanted "TAMPA!" and our side chanted "BAY!" back and forth like 5 times in a row. The Bucs won 17-16, heck of a game. Bucs defense stopped Cam Newton on the 2-point conversion that was going to take the lead on the last seconds of the 4th quarter which ended the game. At one point in the game when the Bucs scored, the Special Teams group were dancing to the music on the field together and got the crowd all pumped up. It was so cool to watch and made me happy to see that they were having fun. My Dad is a Jets fan, and they verse the Bucs at home next season, so Im hoping he can buy those tickets and get good seats so I can re-live that thrilling experience again. Bucs are a great young team on the rise of becoming a playoff/Super Bowl team, and they are going to (hopefully) be better next year and have an even better record than 9-7 (which is not even that bad). Jameis Winston is a leader quarterback, great attitude, and getting to be an even greater player. Mike Evans is an absolute beast, along with Doug Martin, Vincent Jackson, Adam Humphries, Charles Sims, Gerald McCoy, and many others. Great defense, great quarterback, great offense, great coach. Bucs have something good going for them into the next season, lets see who they draft and if they sign any free agents to see what more they can do. Thank you if you read my long review. PS: When the game was over, the Tampa Bay chant started again, and then a Carolina fan was heard through the leaving crowd when they chanted "CAROLINA!" and Tampa fans chanted back "SUCKS!". Lol it was funny.

The field was in great condition. The stadium itself seemed safe and clean. The pirate ship was a very cool attraction. They shot T-shirts out of cannons and threw beads from the ship. The cannons are very loud when (if) the Bucs score, so be prepared. We had major issues with the concessions all over the upper level of the stadium. Given it was a pre-season game, but it seemed like most of the people working there could not even count. They were a lot more focused on reminding people about giving them tips than actually providing any friendly or efficient service. They certainly dont seem to value your time or even care at all that you are missing the game standing in their line. Half of them just stood around looking confused and about half of the beer taps were just idle while there were 8 lines of 20 people at each stand. The worst part was that the credit card system apparently went down at the start of the game. Some guys in blue shirts with backpacks were running around trying to fix it, but they mostly just shut down the stands and made people go get in line somewhere else. There was a lot of yelling about cash only, but not many people could hear them, so they ended up waiting in line for 15-30 minutes only to find out that they couldnt use a credit card. Also the stands advertised a number of different food items (tacos, quesadillas, etc) and we waited in line for them for 20 minutes only to get to the front and find out that they didnt have anything but hotdogs and peanuts! It was by far the worst experience that Ive ever had with concessions at any sporting event ever! We spent almost 45 minutes before we finally got our first beer! It was seriously like the people didnt even want to sell anything! Everyone in line was upset and things only got worse as the game went on.

I always have a great time here... Bucs games, concerts, other events. Even though this Stadium is older now, its still looks good, although I havent been in any other contemporary stadiums to compare. Im usually in the Club level, where theres plenty of climate-controlled seating & food/beverage options, plus a huge wall monitor & TVs everywhere so I never miss a thing. The pirate ship in the end zone is fun, too, especially when the Bucs score & cannons fire! The staff is always friendly, and the bathrooms are clean (except for that broken paper towel dispenser in the West Club that hasnt been fixed for at least 2 events). The food is average... Nothing spectacular. Not even in the Galley buffet downstairs. For $28, it should be better. I couldve eaten before I came, or spent half that on food inside the stadium - the quality is the same, just average.

Went to see U2 and One republic last week. As are with any stadium the security screenings have become quite extensive, However were able to make it so the line moved in an efficient and orderly manor. The prices are food and drinks are what you would expect for any major league stadium nowadays. The seats were nice and even though we sat in the 300 level we still were still able to see and hear the performance. The design of the stadium itself is quite rustic and themed to meet the Tampa bay buccaneers. Which I thought was quite cool and you dont see that as much compared to other stadiums. The drive to find parking was also not as bad as I usually expect and I was able to find 30 dollar parking at a high school a block from the stadium

Wer während der Football-Saison in Tampa Bay ist und nicht ganz von der NFL abgeneigt, der sollte unbedingt ein Spiel hier anschauen. Die Atmosphäre kann man nicht beschreiben, wenn man die Spiele nur vom Fernseher kennt, ist man erstmal erstaunt, wie schnell im Stadion die Zeit vergeht, weil es immer etwas zu sehen gibt und immer irgendwas passiert.

We got pointed in wrong direction by security. Then found a open door went in maintaince lady said door was not supposed to be open but would help us find the right people. The person she talked to over radio was little rude told maintenance lady to stay and keep a eye on us like we did something wrong and sent 2 security guards to take us to right tour spot. So they say arrive 30mins early for check in. No one checked us in til right when it started so waited in outside heat for nothing. Then building only has AC in a suite and last room of tour so your sweating whole time and no water fountains or offered any. I do understand AC is pricy but could charge extra dollar to offer guest water. Also no gift shop.
