While New York is known as the Big Apple, the city of Tampa has been referred to as the Big Guava, mainly because an early pioneer in the Tampa area unsuccessfully tried to cultivate guavas. Tampa, home of the NFL Buccaneers team, has a mild climate year-round, making the beaches and bay popular tourist sites. It is also home to various art and entertainment venues, including museums that place an emphasis on international art. Tampa has incorporated the historic buildings of Ybor City into its neighborhoods, and has a festive time connecting with their past in the famous annual Gasparilla Pirate Fest.
