Union Home Mortgage Gasparilla Bowl 2025 x Bape NCAA College Football Ugly Christmas Sweater Pirate Theme Festive Fan Apparel
The Union Home Mortgage Gasparilla Bowl 2025 x Bape NCAA College Football Ugly Christmas Sweater Pirate Theme Festive Fan Apparel celebrates the 17th annual Gasparilla Bowl scheduled for Friday, December 19, 2025, at 3:30 PM EST at the iconic 65,618-seat Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, featuring an exciting matchup between conference champions from the Southeastern Conference, Atlantic Coast Conference, or American Athletic Conference broadcasting nationally on ESPN. This exclusive collaboration between Japanese streetwear icon BAPE and Tampa’s beloved pirate-themed bowl game merges the brand’s signature camouflage aesthetic with swashbuckling pirate design elements that honor Tampa Bay’s legendary Gasparilla Pirate Festival tradition, creating a unique festive sweater that captures the treasure-hunting spirit of college football’s most buccaneer-inspired postseason game owned and operated by ESPN Events. The sweater’s pirate-themed design celebrates the bowl’s distinctive identity and connection to Tampa’s rich maritime heritage, following the thrilling 2024 edition where the Florida Gators dominated Tulane 33-8 behind freshman quarterback DJ Lagway’s bowl-record 305 passing yards that earned him MVP honors and marked Florida’s first bowl victory since 2019, showcasing the type of unforgettable performances that have defined the Gasparilla Bowl since its inception. This limited-edition ugly Christmas sweater serves as essential fan apparel for attendees experiencing the excitement at Raymond James Stadium, home of the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers and one of the most recognizable venues in American sports with its massive pirate ship in the north end zone, or viewers tuning in to watch the December 19 bowl action that has become a meaningful holiday tradition for the Tampa Bay community just days before Christmas, combining BAPE’s coveted streetwear culture with commemorative NCAA sports merchandise that represents Tampa’s vibrant coastal lifestyle, pirate lore, world-class hospitality, and the Gasparilla Bowl’s growing stature as an exciting postseason destination where student-athletes compete for the treasured Gasparilla Bowl Trophy while fans enjoy unforgettable pre-game tailgates, holiday gatherings, and the electric atmosphere that makes this bowl game one of the most unique and entertaining experiences in the 2025-26 college football bowl season.
