Buccaneers Revealed New Throwback 'Creamsicle' Uniforms and NFL Fans Absolutely Loved Them

In this story:
It doesn’t project to be the most exciting season on the field for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first year of the post-Tom Brady era. But after the team revealed some sharp throwback “Creamsicle” themed jerseys on Wednesday, fans have been flocking to social media to hop on the Bucs' bandwagon.
The team is busting out the jerseys to honor the team approaching 50 years as an organization, deploying the team’s original color scheme of “Florida Orange,” red and white. Tampa Bay will wear the jerseys during its Week 6 matchup against the Detroit Lions, but based on the reaction from Bucs fans, it’s safe to say many people will be rocking these in the stands all season long.

Perfection.
Fans chimed in quickly to say how much they loved the new “Creamsicle” look.
Now that Brady's no longer there and I won't look like a bandwagoner, I'm gonna go get some Bucs creamsicle gear https://t.co/qzI1QP5Zw8

The NFL allowing teams to bring back old-school uniforms is the best thing they’ve done in a very long time. https://t.co/c4aPAeFRiO
