The Tampa Bay Buccaneers want to hear your inspirational stories of breast cancer.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are seeking inspirational stories of overcoming the disease.
On Oct. 14, when the Buccaneers host the Kansas City Chiefs, one fan’s story will be featured as part of the team’s breast cancer awareness commemoration at Raymond James Stadium. That afternoon, the nominee will be named an honorary captain and accompany the Buccaneers on the field for the opening coin toss.
The nominee who wins will receive VIP luxury suite access for four.
