The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been playing, as a franchise in the NFL, since 1976. At career start they were part of AFCs Western Division; however, they are now part of the NFCs Southern Division. Even in their first season, Tampa Bay Buccaneers tickets sold out in no time at all. Tampa Bay residents were thrilled to have a professional football, and were willing to do anything to show their support. In 2002, Buccaneers fans were rewarded for their support with a Super Bowl win – Super Bowl XXXVII to be exact.
