THE LEGEND BEHIND THE INVASION

Off the shores of Florida, the legend of buccaneering sparked a tradition unlike any other. What began as a daring invasion and a forceful command to surrender the key to the city has evolved into today’s Gasparilla—parades, pirates, and an annual takeover that welcomes hundreds of thousands of revelers to join the krewe.

MISSION STATEMENT

The Union Home Mortgage Gasparilla Bowl is more than a game—it’s a full-on celebration. From Selection Day to the moment one team raises the iconic Treasure Trophy, we bring the spirit of Gasparilla to life with a bowl week packed with energy, tradition, and unforgettable experiences. For student-athletes, fans, and partners, it’s a can’t-miss clash that lights up Tampa Bay—and makes the holiday season even brighter for the community we call home.
