In The Tampa–St. Petersburg (Sarasota) Market

In Tampa Bay and Central Florida, Buccaneers fans can watch games through local broadcasts on WTSP 10 (CBS) and WTVT 13 (FOX), available free with an HD antenna. The Bucs dominate the I-4 corridor from Tampa through Orlando, though Orlando officially serves as Jacksonville's secondary market despite being closer to Tampa (88 vs 141 miles). This creates Florida's most complex NFL market dynamics. The Tom Brady era dramatically expanded local support, transforming fair-weather fans into diehards. From St. Petersburg to Lakeland, Sarasota to Ocala, the pewter and red finally owns its home market.
