A picture of the Tampa Bay History Center in the sunshine. The Riverwalk is visible on the right with people walking, and the history center building protrudes from the middle of the picture with many windows and yellow walls. Palm trees are seen throughout the image, and the sun shines in partially wispy cloudy skies.

Chefs prepare for Epic Chef behind a counter laden with fresh produce. The chefs are wearing white uniforms, and wiring surrounds the area in the shiny Epicurean Theatre — a kitchen fit for shows and productions. Counters are a mix of white, silver, and grey, and ingredients line the wall in clear containers.

A vintage-looking photo of Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield wearing an orange creamsicle football uniform. His retro glasses have orange lenses, and he's wearing an old-school headband. There is a boombox next to the bench he's sat on, he's looking at the camera with a serious expression, and the background is a plain red sheet.
