The History of Tampa Stadium: Tampa Bay Bandits, Rowdies, concerts and celebrations!

That last comment from Tom: "Let's hope in 30 yrs when we're doing a final salute to Raymond James Stadium that we'll have a few more Bucs wins to talk about." Well it's been 25+ yrs so far and we sure do! How about TWO Super Bowl wins!! Glad Tom got to see one of them. As far as a final salute to the "new" stadium, I don't think that's happening anytime soon! Long live The Big Sombrero, my favorite stadium ever!

The American Standard toilets in my house are from the skyboxes. The bench under my oak tree is a section of bleachers from Tampa Stadium. They let a lot of people take some stuff before the real demo started. Now... they would say insurance won't let us. I guess that was a different time unfortunately.

First football game I ever attended was at Tampa Stadium, 1973, Univ. of Tampa with Freddie Solomon!

My first NFL game was in Tampa Stadium 1976. Bucs vs Chargers.

Whoa!!!! My first time in Tampa Stadium was the "testimonial game" for Rodney Marsh! I had just moved to Tampa and my friends took me. I didn't even know who Rodney Marsh was!

Wide right I can still see it in my nightmares every night I see Scott lining up for the kick we're finally going to have a Superbowl in Buffalo but then the snap the put down the hold the kick and it's always wide right just like in reality. I'm so glad he knocked the stadium down

MLS should put another franchise in Tampa...how did the mutiny do?

[@jacklandaupresents]

Funny how time changes things. Hard seats, broiling heat, but damn miss it!

[@leftylou6070]

Smoke a joint and you won't even notice it.

[@DonaldWest]

hopefully the new bandits get embraced

[@lonniestephens6254]

What would it be like if they installed a roof above Tampa Stadium?

[@Marcuswelby-nx2te]

Don't start
