The Bucs stretching their budget brings great news for fans; training camp is returning to Tampa in 2009.

The Glazers Boys press on in money-saving mode and will bring Bucs training camp back to Tampa this summer, reports the Orlando Sentinel.

Score one for the average Joe who couldn’t afford to trek out to Disney’s Wide World of Sports to watch training camp over the past several years. The team now will prepare for the season at One Buc Palace across from Raymond James Stadium.

The Chucky era saw the Bucs leave Tampa for Disney. Before that the Bucs had preseason training before huge crowds at University of Tampa’s Pepin-Rood stadium.

Joe remembers those days well, sitting in the covered stands while the big guys were out there sweating their butts off.  

This is great news. Joe is sure the Glazer Boys will find a way to accommodate big crowds. Big crowds mean money, and they like money.
