Branch Spotlight Series: Tampa, #Florida The Tampa Bay Area offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and outdoor recreation, making it a popular destination. Located in the Sunshine State, we don’t lack heat and powder white sand! A fun fact about Tampa, FL: Tampa has earned the nickname “Cigar City” due to its?historical cigar production in Ybor City. The largest #cigar factory in the world once operated here, and even today, you can find hand-rolled cigars in the city. Tampa also hosts an annual event called the Gasparilla Parade, where thousands of pirates take to the streets of Bayshore Blvd. in pageantry and revelry. This historical tradition was inspired by Jose Gaspar, a legendary pirate who plundered Tampa’s waters in the late 18th?century. ?What do Wyatt Seal employees enjoy about the area?: “We work, where you vacation.” Tampa is the perfect blend of coastal charm and bustling city. Whether it's unwinding by the bay after work, going to a sporting event (Lightning, Rays, or Bucs), exploring the diverse #culinaryscene, or going to the beach, there's always something to do!
