hey guys, i am the only die hard buccaneer fan from out here on the west coast. i got some tb tickets and will be flying out there from california with a few friends.

what to do, where to go while out there for a weekend.

might stay at marriot near staduim, downtown, and airport
or
might stay at hardrock cafe

which would u guys suggest

and any other suggestions? dont wanna just be a total newb out there

thanx guys

 

The Hardrock is awesome, and there is plenty to do there

 

The only people in downtown durring the weekends are homeless. It is however a short cab ride from Channelside & Hyde Park both are pretty good spots. If you choose downtown check The Hyatt. Very Nice.

 

anybody else

any other suggestions

im totally open to anything, of course i never been to tb

just wanna do it right, coming from all this way

trying to weigh out options

if we go with the hardrock cafe are they other things to do in that general area. clubs, bars, etc..

marriot looked lot better than hyatt but that was on line, anybody stayed at both?

thanx in advance

 

From what I've gathered, the three places with a decent concentration of bars/clubs are Hyde Park/South Howard, Channelside (Downtown), and North Tampa near USF. That being said, I'd do the Marriot downtown. Cheap cab ride down to Channelside or Hyde Park/South Howard.

 

Hardrock is fun, and if you get bored, you can always head to Channelside or Ybor.

 

Just remember that the Hardrock isn't a full casino. If you don't play poker or the slots you're sol. Best nightlife is definitely S. Tampa (Hyde Park) 2 minutes from downtown.
