TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — In 2025, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are celebrating a major milestone: 50 seasons of hard-hitting, fast-paced action on the gridiron.
From 1976 to now, the team has celebrated all the highs and lows that come with playing in the National Football League. And what better way to showcase the team’s living history than a documentary?
Before the 2025-26 season kicked off, Krewe members, coaches and players from the Bucs’ past and present came to the Tampa Theatre for the premiere of “Raise The Flags: A Buccaneers 50th Season Documentary Premiere and Legends Conversation.”
