Congratulations to Our "Bolts Across the Globe" Winners!
Fans from across the globe, on five continents, have been following the Lightning on the Official Tampa Bay Lightning Facebook Fan Page since June of this year. And since then, the popularity of the Fan Page has made its way from Tampa to Sarasota, Australia to Germany.
Beginning November 16, The Tampa Bay Lightning held a contest exclusive to its fans that follow the team out-of-state, or from over seas - the "Bolts Across the Globe," fan photo contest was born.
After two weeks , and hundreds of of photo submissions, fans from the Czech Republic to New Zealand, California to New York, had submitted their photos displaying where they proudly cheer for the Tampa Bay Lightning.
