The Tampa Bay Lightning did it. Now the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had their turn.
To celebrate their 31-9 win in Super Bowl LV, the Bucs took to the water for a victory parade that's more friendly to social distancing amid the coronavirus pandemic. The Lightning did the same thing to celebrate their Stanley Cup win in September.
The Bucs' boat parade ran through the Hillsborough River, which is along the downtown Tampa waterfront. Fans got to view the parade at various spots along the river. They even got to see Tom Brady toss the Lombardi Trophy to Cameron Brate -- who was on another boat. Check out that and other highlights from the parade.
