The Fan Daddies
Watch The Video
Since this week is the first of our weekly fan of the week feature we decided to give you three times the fun. The Fan Daddies, as they are known collectively, have become fan fixtures at every Buccaneer home game and can be easily spotted tailgating with their bright orange wigs in front of their shortened red school bus. Their crowning moment of fandom was when they appeared on a Bucs-related billboard in downtown Tampa.

Eric "Beer Stud" Walker
A Buc fan from Daytona Beach, he has been a season ticket holder for the past 17 years. His beer drinking physique enables him to be ready fill in on the Bucs line whenever he is needed.

Michael "Afroman" Dearing
The Pinellas resident prefers to watch his figure by drinking light beer while he is tailgating, He has been a season ticket holder for 14 years.

Danny "Big Bop" Bethel
Big Bop is a Tampa native that has been involved with the Bucs for so long that he was part of the construction crew that built "the Big Sombrero."

Are you the loudest fan in your section? Do you have a season's supply of face paint, and have an artistic way of displaying your loyalty to the Bucs? Is your car - or bus, or RV - decked out in red and pewter?

If so, TBO.com is looking for you. Each week during the season, we will be on the lookout for a Fan Of The Week – someone who's not afraid of showing their true Bucs colors, and would like to be featured on TBO.com.

E-mail us if you'd like to be featured, and be sure to share your photos with other Bucs fans by uploading them to our Snap! fan photo gallery.
