TAMPA, Fla. — When you're driving around the downtown Tampa area, you might be able to see an extra piece of Tampa Bay Lightning swag hanging high from a building.
Don't go aimlessly wandering around downtown Tampa breaking your necks trying to figure out where — we'll just tell you! On the side of the Tampa Municipal Office Building, there is a "Go Bolts" banner hanging loud and proud.
As the Bolts continue their run to become back-to-back-to-back Stanley Cup champions, Mayor Jane Castor, Lightning alum, Brian Bradley, the Blue Crew street team and Thunderbug held an event dropping the banner on Friday.
Here are some pictures from the city of Tampa of the banner reveal:
