[Purple Wave]

I'm a Tulane alum, so if I saw you wearing a Patrick Ramsey jersey in my section at Raymond James, I'd prolly buy you a beer.

But, I won't be at the game tomorrow, so don't count any freebies.

[HittinSkinz]

HTTR..... way to represent

[Tarhog]

Represent. Otherwise whats the point of being there in person. The Skins need to see some B&G in the stands.

[Tastes Like Chicken]

I wore a Skins jersey, jacket and hat into the toughest stadium in the league (Philly). No one said a word to me.
Wear your gear with pride!

[spjunkies]

Our fans go to Philly and Dallass games every year, I'm purtty sure Tampon won't be a much of a problem.

[redskins915]

Wear it with pride buddy:evil: !!

[Monks04]

Agreed. Take a stand!

[hockeyguy1721]

well as 30-40% of the stadium will be skins fans i think you will be fine

[GrimReefa]

LMAO @ Tampa fans getting in a fight. What are they gonna do, beat you with their walkers?

Besides, there will be more Skins fans there than Bucs fans, so if there's a brawl you'll be fine.

[drone007]

hell yeh represent. we yell at people in FedEX, it's all in good fun.

Although, if you run into some jackasses that really are being malicious, then just keep your mouth shut and ignore them. The scoreboard is alllllll the smacktalk you will need hopefully. :D And, there WILL be security at the game, if you end up needing it. :laugh:

[MattallicA]

I want to badly, and yea Im am having some doubts, but FK it, if someone wants to fight me bad enough, then they can!

BTW, this Jersey is yes #11, but guess what, it has NO NAME on the back!!!
that's kinda cool! I bought it when Mark Rypien was the *****!!!!

[Martini]

I wore a Skins jersey, jacket and hat into the toughest stadium in the league (Philly). No one said a word to me.

We wore our gear in Philly and we survived. You had better wear your colors in Tampa.

HTTR!

[RedskinDan0557]

They're bsing you, philthy has the worst fans in the known universe, after them and a close second is dallass. We come from a tough division.

Tampa should be like spring break for us--the fans and the team.

Be Loud & Proud, show off your colors.

[Stevviej20]

Ill be wearing my jersey to the game...n there will be security in every section of the stadium so you should be fine... and if someone tries to fight then just beat their @##...lol jus jokin...youll be fine

[Johnny Punani2]

LOL @ Tampon Fans...

You have nothing to worry about...

[TK]

Represent. Otherwise whats the point of being there in person. The Skins need to see some B&G in the stands.
Exactly.

Besides it'll be a great way to fill up their sun faded pink seats.

[subprime]

I'll be there and there's no doubt I'll have as much redskins gear on as possible. Like someone sd b4...if you're not then whats the point of going. I'm in DE which is Eagle country nd agree they're the worst

[Coach Williams]

Tampa fans have become more physical since dungy has been around HOWEVER thats why they increased security.....

Don't worry about it.....don't talk ish in their house because if they did it at fed ex we'd start trippin' too.....

They're cool if you're cool......ESP if they lose......

[MattallicA]

ok guys thanks! I'm still a bit "skeeerd" but FK it! Ive never been more proud to be
a SKINS fan right now! either way, WE done good this year! Im just glad I have a chance to see my boys play!

I'LL BE IN SEC. 245, CORNER SECTION, Next to that stupid pirate ship!!!
I HOPE some fellow skins fans will be near me!

[Skinja]

if someone messes with you just tell portis' mom...she'll handle business

[TD Riggo]

Actually, we're talking Tampa, so you're more likely to have a Yux fan try and beat you with his mullet!

[MattallicA]

this is me.....being drunk, fkd up, and just partying tonight! READY FOR TOMORROW!
Please don't laugh, LOL, Muwahahahahahahah....The Old English is me trying to be ghetto!, Muwahahaha, lmfao :logo: :helmet: :logo: :helmet: :cheers: :cheers:

[SoCalRedskinFan]

Hey Bro-
I am here in San Diego and cant be there so you gotto represent! Wear the Burgandy and Gold! If any Tampon Fans give you a hard time Skin fans will have your back!:redpunch:

[dawgjk9]

man wear that ****. dont let some tampa fans scare you, wreck em all if they come at you....im sure there will be too many skins fans there for a fight to break out anyway, and even w/o skins fans there, im sure no fights would happen in tampa. people from tampa bay dont really strike fear into my heart

[cjcdaman]

Hey this is Tampa . This ain't Philly. If I was there I would be right there with you backing you up with my jersey on. You ain't got nothing to worry about.

[MattallicA]

dude I went to the Monday Night game last year against the Dolphins! I had FOX SPORTS Suite tickets and after the game, the whole stadium was leaving the stands chanting "RED-SKINS-SUCK......." They were startin ***** everywhere!

[SkinsFanMania]

This is Tampa Bay, not Philadelphia or Oakland.

[SkinsFTW]

After the last game down there everybody was saying how tame the Tampa fans were.

They are probably the most peaceful fans in the league.

They probably grow good "Tabacki" down there or something, lol.

[RichC82]

I wore my gear last week into Philly and talked Sh#$ the whole game. I have never been worried about a fight though - most normal fans know their limits. And screw it, if you do get hit - Im sure you can find someone to sue, lol. Be proud. When is the last time you had the chance to cheer on the SKINS in the playoffs.

Again, last week in Philly there were some SKINS fans in front of us wearing regular clothes. I could tell, bc with every big play I could see them pumping their fists very slightly. Thats cool, but I would not make such a long trip down there, just to sit like a pu$$....

Dont be skerred. Hail...

[dreamingwolf]

I went to the game earlier this season there, and 3 meat heads came up to us accussing us of saying some crap to their "wives" and posturing for a fight. We basically played them off cool and said "what?!?" then they backed off and wished us a good game.

There will always be an element looking for someone to fight, if your not looking for a fight and know when its fun banter and when its fight posturing and handle it accordingly you will be fine.

Rule number one when visiting is dont embarrass the team, if you follow that rule then you should never get in a fight.

im gonna wear my stuff! if someone wants to fight me, FINE! OTHERWISE, Fk it! Im gonna get drunk before the game starts! I just dont give a fk! Im for the skins and if ANYONE has a problem....well then just BRING IT! :mad:

[USNationalist]

Wear The Jersey And Fight Them All!

[fuji869]

Wear your gear and represent!

[TXSkinsChick]

wear it with pride...show tampa that we're not screwing around....i'd be there if i could

[seanyt]

Hell yeah, that place isn't oakland where all the cons and felons are in the black hole...

[UdinG]

That Ill have stuff thrown at me, and possibly have people wanting to fight!

Whoever told you that doesn't know what they are talking about. If you are not a complete jackazz, you will be treated just fine in Tampa. I've travelled to over 50% of the stadiums in the NFL. Tampa fans treat opposing fans nicer than anyplace I've been to. Tampa is a classy city all around.

Now if you act like a rude jerk, I can't say that you wouldn't deserve to get pounded. But even then, I've seen some real asses cheering as obnoxiously as possible for the opponents who deserved to be treated poorly, but were not.

The only beating you will suffer in Tampa will be emotional defeat since your Redskins will go home with a loss.

Now Philly is a different story.

[TXSkinsChick]

oh and beyond that....if someone picks on you....just pull a mom portis and punch em!

[UdinG]

oh and beyond that....if someone picks on you....just pull a mom portis and punch em!

Judging from his picture, he's not as tough as Portis' mom. I don't think he should try it.

Sure, that's if Gruden fails to hand over another briefcase loaded with cash to ensure that the goal line magically moves backwards as needed. Are they bringing over the refs from Disney World again?

dont be a PU**Y

[dreamingwolf]

dont look for a fight, you wont get one

Dont embarrass our team and you will be fine

[Blingon]

I wore my ST jersey in Philly last week, and sat alone. I was verbally abused, but oh well. I sat by myself, waited in line for food/beer by myself, and went to the bathroom by myself. I also cheered loudly with no Skins fans near me. If I didn't get my butt beat in Philly under those circumstances, you should be good. Enjoy the game, and I sure wish I could be there with you all.

[SGriffths]

Wear your colors with pride. Any Denver Donkeys that want to give me and my fellow skins crap better be prepared to throw down.

HTTR

:redpunch:

[redskins55]

WEAR YOUR NALIA !!!

Let me tell you.. Bucs fans are harmless with a captial LESS...
They are a bunch of Bay area softies and who couldnt harm a fly. I likened the experience to a Jimmy Buffet concert.
I was there in November and noone bothered me, in fact they were fussing at the bucs, telling me how sorry they were for most of the afternoon. Most even left before the 2 min warning in the last affair. They are bandwaggon jumpers and we can take them out of the game early if we jump on them early and establish a lead.

I had none of that happen to me in November, and I'm wearing colors today.
I also didn't see it happen to anyone else, and no one from our tailgate report any such problems.

[Shea_Ex]

I went to a preseason game in Tampa a few years ago and wore a Redskins jersey and just had the typical jabs you'd get at any stadium. Most of the people there were really nice. I had my picture taken with some guys dressed as pirates out by that ship in the endzone.

It will probably be a little different now considering it's a playoff game, but the hell with it....I say represent! :wavetowel

[GSF]

This is the Bucs fans we're talking about here. Nothing to worry about.

[ntotoro]

It will probably be a little different now considering it's a playoff game, but the hell with it....I say represent! :wavetowel

Yeah. The difference is there won't be as many Bucs fans there... :laugh: :bucsuck:

[kingfish50]

Wear it! And if they start throwing beer at you and we are winning, just point at the score board and laugh then kick thier ***** in the parking lot! HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

[skinman574]

wear it!!!

[Ghost of Art Monk]

The Mrs. and I went to the game in Philly last week wearing Skins jackets and hats. Not a peep from the from the usually barbaric crowd. Wear your gear with pride!!!!

Winning=Respect

[Matador36]

We're NFC east battle tested, king kong ain't got nothing on me! :laugh:

[Robbynice]

We went to Philly and Dallas and lived to tell the story. Tampa IMHO is child's play. Go and represent well. Skins all the way baby!

[NOVA2Tampa]

Now Philly is a different story.

I have to agree with UdinG about the Bucs fans...me and my wife were at the first Skins-Bucs game back in November, and we wore our Redskins stuff, and 99% of the fans were really cool. There were a few young guys with liquid courage in full effect, but we just ignored them. Hell, we sat in the same row as Keith "Big Nasty" Kunzig (Section 108, Row A), and while we thought he would heckle us mercilessly, he was actually really cool...we got our picture taken with him and a Hoggette who was sitting in the same row. Even though the Redskins lost, we still had a blast! :cheers:

BTW, we'll see about who wins or loses this time, bro! HTTR!!! :point2sky

[Murdering Purple Turds]

Umm, it's Florida. What are they going to do? Throw their Metamucil capsules and Medicare cards at you?

[santanamoss89]

Wear your jersey. Represent the Skins.

[Tarpon75]

The only problems I have had in Tampa is when I was leaving the stadium.Just be careful when heading to car after the game.I was in 1 fight a few years back due to an over zealous Buc fan while leaving.In the Nov game I had I buc fan put his finger in my chest and taunt while running by.Just ignored him.Stay in groups and be safe!See you there.GO SKINS!

[gridironmike]

Once at RFK, I saw this guy emerge from a concourse in the upper deck of one endzone. He had an orange jersey and a bucket hat on. He reached under his jersey and pulled out a 3 X 5 Bucs flag and proceeded to walk about 1/3 the way around the stadium holding the flag in front of his face. He was bombarded with beer and hotdogs as he walked around, almost holding the flag up for protection. When he got to his section, he climbed almost to the top of the stadium. In less than five minutes, security was rushing in his direction. They left with him in tow. Wear your stuff proudly, but you don't have to go overboard and flaunt. HTTR!

[misery]

wear it.

With all the fans in the stadium, and probably lots tailgating outside you will be fine

[tinkerbell]

That Ill have stuff thrown at me, and possibly have people wanting to fight!

http://atlas.walagata.com/w/franticstanger/MATT.jpgI won't hurt you, besides you're kinda cute.;)

[HardyNickerson56]

In every stadium you will have a few clowns, but we are not the classless fans you have to usually deal with in the NFC East. Wear your Redskins stuff with pride like I have always worn my Bucs stuff, but all I would say is that you should show some class, heck act like you have been there before and you shouldn't have any problems. I have never said anything to any opposing teams fans unless they started shooting their mouth off.

[halter91]

If I can wear my Skins stuff in Philly and not get into a fight, I'm sure you can do the same.

[Monte51Coleman]

If any Bucs fan threatens physical violence against you challenge them to a spelling bee. ;)

[Stonoman]

Find some other Skins and sit with them if possible. :cheers: :cheers:

[skinsfan080]

I went to the first Tampa/Skins game eariler this year. 99.9% of the people there are nice as hell. I got some crap from some drunk teenagers after the win, but thats by far the nicest stadium (people wise) i've ever been too. DOnt worry about it.

[skinsmomma]

If I survived the game at Philly in my Skins gear, you can survive Tampa--
Show the team you represent

[SkinFan63]

Wear it loud and proud my friend!

And here I thought that maybe, just maybe, Tampa fans had a little more class then Philly fans.

Well see.
I would hope they do.

You will not be alone.

There should be roughly 15,000+ skins fans at the game.
Strength in numbers!


Hail!:point2sky

[TD Riggo]

Hey. We're talking Tampa here. You're setting expectations WAY too high!

A better way to handle it in Tampa is to compare number of teeth. You'll win EVERY time!
