So today the Buccaneers emailed media a list of training camp practices only open to media, specified as information not for public consumption along with August travel days, etc.
However, the team seems to have changed its stance slightly.
Joe tuned into something called _Bucs Insider_, a show published by the Bucs this afternoon. Just 90 seconds into the program it was revealed via a large graphic that Buccaneers rookies, coaches and injured players will report for duty on Monday, July 21, veterans will report a day later, and the first training camp practice will be Wednesday, July 23, a session closed to fans.
The Bucs found deemed all that important to share, so Joe will, too.
The first practice open to the general public is Thursday, July 24, one of three dates open to the masses this summer.
Fans can buy tickets for general public camp dates for $10.75 each via the team website. Yeah, lots of NFL teams are making 2025 training camp free for fans, including the Bears, Cowboys and Steelers, but Joe suspects Team Glazer has a very good reason why the average Joes are getting slapped with an admission fee.
Training camp parking is free at One Buc Palace and _Bucs Insider_ strongly suggested free frozen ice pops will be available to fans in attendence while supplies last.
In all, the Bucs’ revelations today mean preseason festivities fire up a little sooner than it may have appeared. And that’s a beautiful thing.
