Cooper plays into Cuban theme with outfit at 2026 Stadium Series

Tampa is known for having a strong Cuban community. Ybor City, in Tampa, is one of the first major Cuban hubs in the United States, dating back to the late 1800s.

“A tip of a cap, no pun intended to the heritage in Tampa,” Cooper said after the game. “And our staff, we’ve been known to hit Ybor City a little bit and smoke some cigars, as a little staff outing. We thought it was apropos to kind of go down that road and then it grew. It grew into gold chains, and canes, and rings. This event doesn’t come around very often, either. It was a part of it, it was a ton of fun.”
