The prospect of watching remaining Tampa Bay Buccaneers home games on local television is bleak. A team that, not long ago, perpetually sold out the 65,000-seat Raymond James Stadium and had a waiting list for season tickets is struggling this year to fill the stands. That's why the Bucs' game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday is expected to be blacked out, a team spokesman said. But it doesn't end there, because team officials are bracing for blackouts of every home Bucs game. "We are expecting a blackout for this (the Saints game) and the remaining slate of home games," Bucs director of communications Jonathan Grella said. "Obviously, it's a challenge we've been facing for awhile now." Grella said the team's sales department is "understanding of the pace of ticket sales" and projected that the Bucs' remaining home games will not sell out. Source Tampa Tribune
Yeah yeah we know.... you make it sound like Tampa Bay is all poor slums and homeless people or something.
