Seems like you guys don't understand that Michigan gets pretty cold in the winter and a lot of people, especially retired people move and vacation there.
Come and say Tampa fans suck to my face and see what happens you dumb fuck. You dont understand what goes on down here. People move here and stay fans of their old teams. Those people who do that are ass holes.
@TheMustang424 Wait, so you are saying if I have lived in Michigan for my whole life, and I move to Tampa Bay, I must become a Lightning fan? The Lightning are my second favorite team because Steve Yzerman is their GM. I hate the fans though. You are lucky the Red Wings already had an amazing GM or else Tampa Bay would suck.
Also, the percentage of away fans at Tampa games is so high because all the hockey dads plan their vacations to Florida at the time of their favorite team playing the Lightning, and just drag their family down. I really feel bad for the Lightning fans, it must suck to see all that opposition support.
ALOT of Florida residents come from Michigan and obviously alot more Michigan residents like hockey than Tampa residents, so put those 2 together and you're going to have alot more Wings fans in Tampa than Tampa fans.
It happens in any stadium/arena any sport. Ive been to orioles baseball games where yankees fans take over camden yards in baltimore when the yankees are in town.
More proof than cities/states like Tampa, Phoenix, Carolina, Florida and Atlanta don't deserve a hockey team. How the hell can you let fans of OTHER teams invade your own arena like that?
But then, ppl trash the red wings because they can't sell-out and I found it funny.
First of all I am a die hard fan of the capitals bruins flyers and the lightning. and I am here to say that Tampa Does diserve an NHL team I have been down to Tampa to see the devil rays baseball and lightning hockey games and I can say from experience that fans in Tampa are passionate about their sports teams.
You are wrong! I was there, It makes me SICK paying over $6000 a year for season tickets to put up with this bullshit! Tampa Fans are a bunch of bandwagon losers! They never go to games unless they are winning! And Give their seats up to anyone paying usually for less then what they pay!
Would you be one of the "bandwagon losers" you were talking about? Maybe you're just mad that you spent 6G's on tickets that you sold for half that. But now you want them back. True Lightning fans have passion for the game. All the Wings fans were people who just got into hockey and just pick the most well known of hockey teams or grew up Red Wings fans and are now living in FL. I was at that TB/Det game from the video cheering for the Bolts and that chant was for both teams, Lightning and Wings
Yea typical Tampa Bandwagon other sports kinda response! Just like the RAYS games no one went or supported them till they won! BUT THEY ALL GO TO SEE THE BUCS LOSERS NO MATTER HOW BAD THEY SUCK!
they dont go to see the bucs they go to get drunk and have a good time, football in the states is more then a sport its a fucking holiday for every game, with 41 home games who is gonna pay to see a losing product. if football had 41 regular season home games the atendence would drop to for a losing product. football is perfect with the 8 home game schedule for selling out every game
Well i feel so bad for u cause your a fan for such a fucking dead beat loser of a team, and no matter what u say when i saw this it makes me feel better, cause that cup u got belongs to the Calgary Flames and im not a flames fan but cmon give me a fuckin break... u must had good old gary suckin some big dick to the goal review guy fuck tampa what a waste.
The Red Wings are my favorite team from the Western Conference, and I seriously LOVED watching them beat the Pens in the Cup Finals...and I absolutely HATE the Lightning! No one in that area even cares about hockey. During the Cup Finals, they still had trouble selling out their arena.
I really believe that the NHL should get rid of worthless teams like Atlanta and Tampa Bay, and make the Blue Jackets a Eastern team...although as a Flyers fan, I would miss owning the Thrashers.
had trouble selling out the areana during the finals?! the line at the box office stretched all the way down town when the those tickets where on sale! lay off the crack and stop being a banwagoner for the winning teams u fucking retard and be a true fan.
First of all...I am a die-hard Flyers' fan, but I like the Red Wings cause they're my favorite team from the Western Conference. I rooted for them during the Cup Finals last year and have been for 10+ years now.
I'm a season ticket holder for the Flyers, and have been since 2000. I even went to almost every game during the 2006-07 season, yes, when they had the worst record in the league. I support them no matter what...I bet you do too for your team, but you're prolly one of the few
i dont live in detroit buddy i could care less about the lions stop comparing apples and oranges you pathetic chump. Red Wings have a long and storied history while Tampa been around what 10 years and nobody gives a shit. Dont be jealous of our rich history and fan base just cuz you cant sustain your own
Zzzzz ... and yet ANOTHER bandwagon fan --- we all know that there are front-runners in every town .. guys like "oozingmoisture" who are failures in life with nothing going for themselves ... guys who are the bottom feeders in society who find "their place" by clinging to the accomplishments of whatever organization happens to be winning these days. Classic underachievers like this clown jump on & off bandwagons all their life ... let them have their "moment" ... it's all they have
I cheer for the teams in my area ... always have .. always will .. through thick & thin
you cheer for teams in different areas of the country that all have a history of winning titles .... you are a FRONT RUNNIN' RAT BASTARD ... that's what you are --- DEAL WITH IT!
you obvious that you are a follower with low self-esteem trying to make yourself feel better by jumping on the bandwagon of teams that have won titles
Just because they have history of winning title DOESN'T mean I'm a front runner fan you moron. Little did you know I live in a city with ONE pro sport team and I don't have to cheer for the team of my area (in this case, that is the habs). And I don't cheer for them because they won title.
The lakers missed the playoffs in the 2004-05 season, haven't won a championship since 2002 and I'm still a fan of them bozo. From someone from TAMPA, it's kind of funny to call someone a frontrunner.
SURE... bet you've been a long suffering steelers fan ... and I'm sure you've been with the celtics for quite some time now and probably have a reversible texas tech/oklahoma hat ready for this weekend too
Man, I've never heard of redwings fans traveling. Hell, they don't even sell out their playoff games until they get pittsburghers buying all their tickets.
and that's where you'd be wrong fvckboy ... I've got season tickets to the Rays, Bucs & Bolts ... and I've had them all for 10+ yrs --- plenty of front-runners in every area .. but don't you EVER question my support for the teams in my area you friggin douchepipe
when some douchepipe (such as yourself) feels the need to take shots at my team, you're damn right I'm gonna fire back ... pound sand you friggin' frog
It wasn't quite as noticable when the team was winning, but you gotta wonder about the "real" hockey fans who come out to the games wearing Bolt colors every other night and turning on the team they rooted for last night to put on the Red. "Lets Go Light-Wings!!"

your logic is retarded.Thats like saying the beach boys never DESERVED to be a band because they never had quite as many fans as the beatles.Besides,all those lame ass detroit fans are simply snowbirds pumping all their cash into TAMPA economy.LOL.
no your logic is pathetic, who wants to sit in an arena while your team is getting beaten with a bunch of out of town jerks, WHEN LIGHTNING FANS SHOULD BE PAYING TO SEE THIER TEAM PLAY 365 DAYS A YEAR, SUPPORTING THE TEAM AND KEEPING JUST TAMPA FANS IN SEATS WITH BOLTS JERSEYS ON! CHANTING LETS GO LIGHTNING! LETS GO LIGHTNING! LETS GO LIGHTNING! TO ROOT THEM ON WITH POSITIVE ENERGY TO WIN YOU ASSHOLE!
