Bucs Draft Party TONIGHT!

April 26th, 2018

To keep it simple, there will be at least 500 passionate Bucs fans representing 14 states and five countries in the house tonight, including Ira Kaufman, Joe, Rock Riley, Justin “The Commish” Pawlowski, and a very big-name surprise.

In addition to inside at Buffalo Wild Wings in South Tampa, there will be an outdoor setup (truly massive tent, LED screens, etc.) and yes, there’s a license to drink in the parking lot. A great D.J. will be working it outside but dialing back the music for the picks. Inside will be all football.

There are giveaways and a buffet, too, and two huge surprises. Be there, the party runs all night. And it dials up a little smaller on Friday.

All-you-can-eat buffet available starting at 6 p.m. and runs all night long. Be there!! Joe and Ira Kaufman will be in the house with the Stick Carriers and The Commish. Raw energy and Bucs love everywhere.
