You Can Not make this Up.

There are many fun memories of the Suncoast Resort. In front of our store facing the breezeway, above out main windows were 2 speakers. cross the street was a very large commercial building sitting in its own park. On the north side were 3 houses. The owner of the second park was always calling the police for to loud music. We were always getting in trouble with the police for music too loud. then the police realized it was not us but the 2 huge main bars. On Sundays we would open our store at 10 am and play Cajun. Then the bars took over at 12 noon. One October morning we changed the music to Polka. people started to dance the Polka and were having a great time. Then the police pulled up. The officers walked up to the dancers.  We looked surprised and said “We know why your here the music is to loud…..Right?” The officers started to laugh & said “No it’s not to loud. They are complaining the music is so awful bad… Please make them STOP!!!”

NO Fence in Ybor this Year!!!
Halloween Celebrations in GaYBOR/Ybor City
Three Cheers for NO FENCE in Ybor City this year. This years Halloween Events are going to be over the top FUN!!! Saturday during the day there will be events for children. A 500 pumpkin patch in Centro Ybor and The First Annual “Bed Races'”. The Best place to watch the Bed Races will be on Hamburger Mary’s Balcony with Tea Cup. There are many organizations and clubs coming together for an incredible time. See you all in GaYBOR/Ybor City
 
Letter to Tampa City Council
(In the Tampa Tribune Today)
It is come to the attention of ALL citizens in Tampa that the Tampa City Council has proposed that ALL Tampa establishments (bars, clubs, restaurants, convenience stores, movie theaters) that sell liquor close at midnight. Some may stay open with stronger added permit regulations. Council states this is because of at closing violence at Club Manilla, just east of Ybor City and Club Empire on 7th Ave. Both have self imploded and are gone. Numerous clubs have the same audience, yet maintain a good neighbor standing in the community.
The idea that changing the closing to midnight to reduce after bar closing violence is totally wong & will actually increase violence. At midnight in Ybor City there are 30 times the people here than at 3am. That would mean 30 times more violence.  No matter what the closing time is, people will power drink 1 hour before closing. The violence will be unbelievable and totally out of control. Tamp City Council should take a close look at how the Hard Rock Casino on the Seminal Indian Reservation in Tampa City limits, handles bar closing violence. There is no bar closing!!! They stay open 24 hours a day 365 days a year. There is no problem of power bing drinking. There is no problem of everybody at the same time being pushed out into the street. There is no problem of everybody driving away at the same time. There is no increase of police at closing.
It’s time Tampa leaders adopt a policy for the gem of Tampa,  Historic Ybor City similar to the Historic French Quarter in New Orleans and allows liquor sales 22/7. 2 Hours for cleaning. It is also time for Tampa to adopt an open container policy in Ybor City Historic District like the one in Historic Savannah, Georgia. How many time have we all been in a club and people rush to finish a drink because their friends wanted to go to a different club.
It is time for the Tampa City Council to rethink and work on this issue and stop punishing all the honest hard working club owners & staffs.  It’s time for Tampa City Council to help level the playing field. It’s time to allow Ybor City to fairly compete, not only with Savannah, GA & New Orleans but the local Hard Rock Casino.
