Bucs score a new office for ticket sales

SARASOTA — Tampa Bay Buccaneers football fans in Sarasota-Bradenton now have a local connection for tickets: The team has opened an office for ticket sales in downtown Sarasota.

The office, according to a release, is in the Sarasota City Center building, on 1819 Main Street. The Bucs will sell season and Stadium Club memberships, group tickets and tailgate options, in addition to a new all-inclusive Legends Suite package out of the office.

“We are thrilled to extend our ticket sales operations into the Sarasota and Manatee county areas in order to better serve our existing fan base there as well as build even stronger relationships within the communities,” Buccaneers COO Brian Ford says in the release. “With the excitement surrounding our offseason acquisitions and the high expectations for this upcoming season, we understand the passion for the Buccaneers extends well beyond Hillsborough County.”

The new office will also coordinate school fundraising programs in Sarasota and Manatee counties.
