Mayor Bob Buckhorn is no sore loser.
- Tampa mayor tweeted photos, video of wager payoff for "War on I-4"
- Mayor Buckhorn bet Mayor Dyer over UCF vs. USF game
- The Knights beat the Bulls for the second year in a row
Tampa's mayor showed visual proof that he paid off his wager to Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer over last week's "War on I-4" game between the University of Central Florida Knights and the University of South Florida Bulls.
The Knights beat the Bulls 49-42, maintaining their undefeated season.
The Bulls have lost to the Knights two years in a row.
Before the game, Dyer and Buckhorn made a friendly wager -- the losing mayor would have to hoist the winning team's flag over their city hall. They'd also have to send some locally-brewed beer and another locally-made product to the winning mayor.
Buckhorn tweeted pictures Thursday over a pack of Cigar City beer and a box of Arthur Fuente cigars, made in Ybor City.

He also tweeted a video that featured him walking, wrapped in a UCF flag, to a funeral dirge before hoisting it over Tampa City Hall.
This is tough to see, but a bet is a bet. Congrats to @UCF_Football on their hard fought War on I-4 win last weekend. Enjoy your @CigarCityBeer & Arturo Fuente cigars, @OrlandoMayor Buddy Dyer. @USFFootball will win the next time! #GoBulls🤘 pic.twitter.com/FURCp1yynv

"You know, Mayor Dyer, this is twice you have humiliated me," Buckhorn said in the video. "I am 0 and 2 against your UCF team.
"But I'm coming for you," he added," and I know you're going to be mayor for life in Orlando, so I'm going to get plenty of chances to get revenge, Buddy."
