Fanmily Reunion tshirts on sale now! There's a special bond between What The Buc Swoopin D Tailgate and the Buccaholics . We had an amazing time when they hosted us to Thunder Alley at SoFi and now it's our turn to return the hospitality! It seems so insignificant to call this a tailgate.... it's a stand alone event before the kick off of the Los Angeles Chargers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers game. Both fanbases love Vincent Jackson so What The Buc Really Matters Foundation, Inc. has pledged the proceeds generated by this event to benefit the Vincent Jackson Family Foundation . Our Buccaholics are pledging the proceeds generated by the tshirt sales to the same. Doc Lightning has challenged ALL VJax fans to wear his jersey for a commerative group photo. Stay tuned for a HUGE joint Meet and Greet . It's going to be a weekend recorded in tailgate history!
Get a jump on our FUNdraising efforts by ordering your tshirt now.

Look what you did!! Superfans from all over the country spent an afternoon tailgating together, representing our teams, all while raising awareness and funding for a local Pittsburgh non profit, Light of Life Rescue Mission . It's not often we are all together, with not a single scoreboard in site, just celebrating fandom. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and mugs! If you're interested in participating in DC during next year's draft, just let us know! Oh, and you fans are simply awesome 🍺
