Buccaneers+LightningWeekend in Tampa
best in fall; weak in spring and summer
Why this pair works
Cross-league pair (Buccaneers + Lightning): 5 upcoming shared weekends, 13-minute venue transfer.
- Different leagues mean different audiences and different schedule rhythms in the same city.
- Short venue-to-venue transfer by same-city standards.
- Both teams contribute meaningful trip value; neither side is just filler.
