The 2025 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Game Day Experience | Simeon Rice Ring Of Honor Day

The 2025 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Game Day Experience | Simeon Rice Ring Of Honor Day

Sunday morning, the last day of November 2025. We’re back. Back for Tampa Bay Buccaneers football. Buccaneers currently sitting in first place of the NFC South, but it is an ugly first place of the NFC South. Injury plagued, horrible coaching today, facing off against the Arizona Cardinals, which are more than halfless, more than hopeless. Three and eight. Hoping for a Buccaneers rebound and a win. Got a little bit of a tailgate going on over here. All right, so we’ve wrapped our tailgate. Quick sandwich. All right, so we didn’t do the what the buck tailgate today purely because I want to see the invasion and we haven’t seen that in some time now. Oo, almost dropped it. And I only had two breakfast beers. Also, Buccaneers wearing red uniforms today. This is not a creamsicle throwback game. They’re not wearing a white uniform today. They’re wearing red. I’m wearing white. I’m doing both. I’m wearing white because it is going to be about 80° outside. So, not sticking with the dark colors. Tailgating, pre-party, well in effect all around the stadium. This preacher playing a little Jesus hip hop. [Music] Buck celebrating 50 seasons here. Did you get your body going? No. God did. Bucks also celebrating Simeon Rice today as they induct him into their Ring of Honor. We’ve got fan activities out here. Bucks Beach over to the right. Sign your lives away. Circle K, Florida blue. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Some women with their baker’s hats. Mr. Pib making a resurgence. Cheers. Look at your photo with the trophy. Simeon Rice. There’s a limbo contest. Okay, hang on. All right, we’re going to jump it. Safety first. All kinds of photo ops. Hey, [Applause] cheerleaders. Yes. Brian Ford out here meeting and greeting. [Applause] [Music] My god, it sounds like an invasion. Danny, let’s see. We can hear. Can you all hear some tracks? I think I hear the bus line [Applause] [Music] [Applause] William, you’re in for a treat, sir. For your 9th birthday, sir. Appreciate it. Thank you, sir. Here we go. [Music] [Music] [Music] Woo! Let’s hear it. Make some noise. Everybody line [Applause] [Music] up. I see something. [Music] You guys doing a little something. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Y [Applause] screw it. [Music] Is that Captain Fear? I see. Is that Captain Fear? I see Tampa. [Applause] Captain Fear and his pirates are here. [Applause] Let’s go. [Applause] Woo! [Music] [Applause] Praise [Music] the flag. Praise the flag. Praise the flag. Praise the flag. Praise the hand. Raise the flag. [Applause] Let’s [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] go. Let’s go. Let’s go. [Music] Woohoo! [Music] Stairway to heaven time. So, we’ve made it in here today. Apparently, Baker Mayfield coming back injured last week. Going to play today. Bucky Irving expected to play today. Bucks try to pull out the stops. They need to get a win. This should be in all accounts an easy win today, but we know how that goes with the Buccaneers. Coaching problems galore with this team both with offensive coordinator. The defensive play is not that great. Todd Bulls overall awful. I think even Stevie Wonder could see at this point like the Bucks were stacked when they had Brady and Arens handed over the team. Bucks couldn’t get it done at that point. Bucks are stacked again. There’s no reason, like I said during training camp, that they shouldn’t at least win the NFC East. They did pull off some really unreasonably close games at the start of the season. Games that in my opinion shouldn’t have been that close, but lately just falling apart. Is that a selling point? I don’t know. You can win this wrapped bucks Hyundai Palisade. I’d drive that. Checkers is in here. You can literally get a big Buford hamburger for $18. I complained about the prices for checkers at the Kia Center where the Magic Flag. I think that that’s $2 more. I’m not sure. Our section today is$145 right under the pirate ship. And I was most recently on this pirate ship just a couple of months ago. We did a tour at Ray J. I’ll put a link to that video here. And this is the view from the cheap seats today. Not too shabby. These were resale tickets. And honestly, the tickets were about a half off of what face value was. And people ask all the time, “How do you get tickets for cheap?” You just need to keep going back to like a SeatGeek or StubHub and keep refreshing every day. Eventually, somebody’s going to get desperate and put their tickets on for much cheaper than what they go for. And right up here in the Ring of Honor, you have John Gurn who is reinstated this year. And right there, we’ll have Simeon Rice. Got a little kiss happening. Here’s [Music] the rest of the Ring of Honor. [Music] 10% chance of rain. 83° on November 30th. You can bid on things here or get an autographed mystery box. 140 bucks. Who are you going to get? probably Bird Emanuel, Chris Sims, or some other scrub. Or you could just buy stuff here. Mike Evans 450, Baker 450, Chris Godwin, AMA. I think there’s a problem. Like Levante is 325, but Amique is 425. Come on now. Walking over by where our old season tickets were. [Music] Abuka. [Music] John Guden in the house. Future head coach of the Buccaneers. [Music] I remember when Bobby Buché showed up at halftime. Well, they’re right here for the Cardinals and you got the Bucks across the field. [Applause] [Music] There we go. [Music] Fire. [Music] Oh no. Let’s go. [Music] Woo. [Applause] [Music] [Music] Extremely Nice. Feels scary. Number [Music] 67. Woo! [Applause] And this season [Applause] from Penn State in his ninth season with the crew, number 14. And in this eighth Easy point [Applause] out. [Applause] [Music] Yeah. [Music] [Applause] Awesome. [Music] Welcome to Raymond James Stadium. [Applause] John Verden is the captain. [Music] [Applause] H. Let’s go. [Applause] My god, the flag is coming. [Music] [Applause] Bucks are just awful on defense. [Applause] Literally right when I said that. And they let the Cardinals move up the field then to an interception. Dunie’s on the board. Buckyy’s in the game. Hand off the number seven early. [Music] went almost to the end zone. [Applause] Real goal instead of a touchdown. [Music] Let’s hear it across our beat line. [Applause] flag. Lots of questionable calls. Fourth and two. First down. [Music] [Applause] Hey, [Applause] God damn, there’s another flag. You suck. You suck. You suck. You suck. [Applause] Oh, what the hell was that? [Applause] Go bucks. Bucks defense just let the Cardinals like walts their way down the field with a minute right down the middle. So 10 10 to three at the half time to honor Simeon Rice. He goes out there in that first drive. championship. He put up the stats in this decade of play that you can put up against anybody to transform an already great defense into one of the most dominant in NFL history. Simeon had established itself as the premier edge rusher in the NFL and played a big part in delivering our first Super Bowl championship. An incredible 12year NFL career has finished with 122 careers. A mark that placed him among the top 20 in the league at that time. He spent more than a decade in the league. He is the top edge rusher is one of the top edge rushers. And here at Tampa Bay and in the NFL is undeniable. Today, as we induct him into the Buccaneers Ring of Honor, Simeon takes his place among the greatest Buccaneers of all time. [Applause] Simeon Rice. Woo! Tampa Bay, let me hear you. On this 50th anniversary of the franchise, we stand in a moment bigger than football, bigger than legacy. I stand here as a man built by faith, shaped by struggle, and crowned by this city. And before anything else, we earned this together. First, I thank God for strength and for protection and for purpose. To my parents, Henry and Evelyn Rice, rest in peace. You are my armor, my foundation, and I carry every moment of my life with you. To my brother, may your soul rest in peace. You are my armor as well and my guidance, my fire, my sparring partner, and my guide. And everything I am, I became. It’s because of you. To my four little sisters, thank you for grounding me with love, love. You kept me a big brother and inspired. Chicago Roseville, where toughness wasn’t tough, it was required. Vong Kong 1991 state champs where I learned the winning ways it feels like a champion and sacrifice and brotherhood the mindset of a champion to the Glazer family and Captain Bay Buccaneers. Thank you for letting me etch my name into the 50-year legacy. To Zack Brooks, Legend, your beautiful family. To the love of my life, thank you for being the calm. To my son, Jordan, I always wanted to make you proud. And to my little baby James, you remind me that greatness begins with a spark in a child’s heart. Cardinals missed a 43 yd field goal. Unbelievable. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] is a superhero here. Cardinals get the ball back and they’re literally just marching right down the field again. Cardinals on the board. It is 1710 Bucks at the end of three and the teen store has Simeon jerseys and salute to service. Shirts. Shirt. Shirts. Little kid jerseys and onesies. I love this shirt, but not $170. Love. All right, Tampa. We’re going to get out of here. Final thoughts coming up once I get out of these soaking wet clothes. All right, so change of clothes and we’re off on to our next adventure. To just be transparent, uh, Sir Henry’s Christmas Trail, so I’m not sure which order of the videos will end up being posted first. And so the Buccaneers eaked out a win um once again. They uh they win miraculously by a very small margin. And the Panthers are just dominating at this point. And the Panthers I thought were a far worse team uh on paper at least than the Buccaneers. And the Buccaneers are just literally getting by by the skin of the teeth of their teeth. Um, coaching is abysmal. Play calling is abysmal. Defense is way abysmal. Um, the defense is just it’s like paper thin at this point and you can’t rely on the offense to score 100 points and they’re not going to. Um, so I very much worry four out of the next five games are divisional games. We’ve got the Saints once, the Falcons once, and the Panthers twice. and whoever wins those Panther games is going to end up winning the NFC South and making it their ticket to the playoffs. And I don’t feel very confident about that at this point. Um the the Bucks have an assload of talent and they are not delivering the goods with the talent that they have. And I put that blame on the coach. They had that same level of talent in the last year that Brady was here too when the team was handed off from uh Bruce and we’ve only let um coaches go Cohen to the Jaguars. The Jaguars I think are far lesser team than the Bucks and they are just dominating in their division also with with their coaching staff. And uh you know it for years I used to say the Bucks could do anything if they had a better quarterback and Brady came in and it proved it right like the Bucks won the Super Bowl. Um and now I think that they have so much talent all they need to do besides that the injuries that they’ve had. I mean this is the closest that they’ll have to like a full squad team I think at this point you know without getting Evans back again. Um, but um, with with having the talents they have, they need to be doing better. And that’s it. In any event, I love the Buccaneers. I feel like they’re your child when your child disappoints you. And that is uh, the best analogy that um, I could give at this point. So, it was brutally hot outside in the sun today, too. So hot. Very, very warm. So, so hot. So, um, I’m going to get out of here. Thanks a lot for coming along. Thank you very much for all of your likes, comments, and subscriptions. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Have a great day. See you guys.

We are back at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, FL to see the Buccaneers take on the Arizona Cardinals. It was a special day in the Bay as the Bucs inducted Simeon Rice into their Ring of Honor. This is our game day experience, including the full pirate invasion at Bucs Beach.
