October 8, 1991 – Gay Culverhouse, president of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, challenges Palma Ceia Country Club’s bylaws during a speech to the Network of Executive Women at Tampa’s Centre Club. Culverhouse cited what she considered to be discriminatory practices that prohibited women from gaining full club membership. “I’m doing this for women,” Culverhouse said. “We are corporate leaders.”
