Heads up, Tampa football fans.  Tickets for all Tampa Bay Buccaneers home games at Raymond James Stadium go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m.

But, there's a way to get them earlier.  If you're reading this, we'll guess you spend some time on Facebook or Twitter like us.  Good thing, because if you "like" the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Facebook or follow the official Bucs Twitter feed, you'll be able to buy tickets for the 2012 Bucs home games 24 hours earlier beginning at 10 a.m. on Thursday.

Season Pass, Stadium Club and Luxury Suite members already have the ability to buy with a pre-sale, which began at 10 a.m. this morning.

Ticket prices will range from $30 to $395 with a variety of price points and seating options.

Tickets can only be purchased online at Buccaneers.com or by phone at 800-745-3000.  Tickets can also be purchased right here on our Tampa Bay Buccaneers ticket page.  Tickets will not be sold at the Buccaneers ticket office or Raymond James Stadium.

Under new head coach, Greg Schiano, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will kick off the 2012 season with a home game against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, September 9.  During the game, the Bucs will honor cornerback Ronde Barber for his 200th consecutive start.  To celebrate, the organization is giving fans a half-price discount on all food and non-alcoholic beverages, free parking in select lots, and a special "Ronde Barber giveaway" that has yet to be revealed.  Pretty good deal, right?

Sound fun?  Make plans to head out to Raymond James and cheer on our one and only Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
