Happy Birthday To Joe
August 7th, 2011
It all started with a laptop, a dream and a passion for the Bucs.
JoeBucsFan.com met the world three years ago today.
Feeling compelled to work tirelessly on behalf of his fellow Bucs fans, Joe set out to inform and entertain Bucs fans like nobody in history.
Thankfully, fans slowly began to flock here and proceeded to blast Joe for his strong opinions and call Joe a jerkoff and a loser hiding behind a cartoon. But they kept coming. They told friends.
Some of Joe’s media pals helped spread the word, and soon Joe knew JoeBucsFan.com was a place some fans wanted to go every day — whether they liked it or not.
Joe finally knew his humble website had arrived when traffic here exploded on the night Jon Gruden was fired.
More than 8,300 Bucs-related posts later, today Joe is proud and grateful to report that 2011 alone has already brought 1.7 million actual visits to JoeBucsFan.com.
Joe humbly thanks all of you.
Over the years, countless readers have kindly offered to buy Joe a beer one day. Well, now’s your chance on this special occasion. The options are below via PayPal. Joe promises to use the money for your specific gift — seriously.

Cracking me up JOe. Funny stuff. I’m so drunk I can’t find my debit card. Maybe in the morning. Sports is supposed to be an escape but what I hate about football is the short season. It’s just not enough. Your site has made it more tolerable because somehow you find all kinds of stuff to write aboutm. The season never ends on JoeBucsFan!

Gotta love the internet!
Some dude slurping a beer decides hes going to set up a little place to talk all things Bucs and 3 years later he has damn near 2 million people watching him ramble on about some communist news network, a goat safety and the stunning Rachel Watson.
Does it get any better than this?
Congrats Joe!
Here’s to another 3 years of this madness!

Happy Birthday Joe. I spend my entire day in front of a computer, and as a result spend way too much time on the internet. This is my favorite site, by far (and I’ve probably been on every Bucs site imaginable). The job you do for us is amazing, and I can’t thank you enough.

Happy b-day joe, and make sure you share. I figured you would buy the beer yourself, but may not help those young ladies pay the light bill without a little better donation. LOL.
enjoy the day.

Joe I would love to open up the pocket book for all your time spent keeping your readers informed… also I wish I had a good excuse to not give you a donation… but I am too lazy to come up with one. Oh well, I’m sure you make enough to pay your web hosting bill. Enjoy the leg work 🙂

I’ll buy you a drink. It is the least I can do for the countless hours of entertainment you have given me.
Thanks for it all, JoeBucsFan.

Heartfelt thanks to all for the kind words (and the beer?).
This place is a labor of love for Joe. Glad so many share in the passion.
