Bucs Add 3,600 Gameday Seats
June 21st, 2022
Way to go Team Glazer! You just expanded gameday capacity of The Licht House 3,600 seats, so that should mean you can find a way to let at least a few hundred cash-strapped fans who can’t afford season passes into training camp.
Right?
Joe sure hopes so.
Yes, today the Bucs formally announced a new stadium section called The Krewe’s Nest, located in the south end zone. This area will include 3,600 seats.
Season passes are on sale now and you can hit the team website for information. Joe wonders what will be removed to accommodate all those extra bodies? And Joe wonders why the Bucs didn’t do it last year?
Regardless, this is fantastic news for fans seeking elusive Bucs tickets, and bad news for the ticket scalping/re-seller crowd. Supply just went up while overall demand is unclear.

I liked walking through there, standing there to watch and end zone drive, and being able to grab something to eat.

Oh this sucks! I was 95% sure he was coming back.

LOL, I’m not holding my breath on that one. Nothing in the Glazer’s history suggests to me that they’ll do anything but pay lip service to fans. Business is business and as long as they continue to spend money on our team, I don’t care overly much what they do. The eventual shakedown for a new stadium is going to happen sooner rather than later and they should apologize for what they did to Gruden. Outside of that, I’m neutral wth these dudes.

3,600 seats times $2,700/seat = $9,720,000 incremental revenue
With the remaining cap space (about $10.4 million), that’s more than enough to pay for Trey Flowers and absorb the salary of a decent TE.

Let’s here Joe’s take on Gronk retiring.

They did the same exact thing for the Alabama vs Clemson College Football National Championship Game just a few years back, & I would guess all of the uncertainty still surrounding COVID at this time last year being a good reason as to why they didn’t move forward with this last season.
