You Just Can’t Make This Stuff Up!
We so LOVE Miss Amy DeMilo!!! This weekend in the Ybor parking garage, she was a guardian angel to a very lucky man in trouble. Here is what Amy posted on Facebook…
Amy DeMilo
August 2 at 3:42am · Tampa, FL
On my way home, in the parking garage, in the elevator up to 4th floor…[the] door opens [and] he falls in! I freaked out; it was like a movie…he was propped up against the doors and just fell in. I thought he was dead! But no, just passed out. I did call 911 and had police and fire trucks there in 2 minutes! Didn’t want to leave him alone! So if anyone knows him, please let me know he survived! My good deed! Sorry for posting your pic, you hot mess, but you were cute!
Tampa Flooding
This is the flooding on North “A” Street in Tampa, in front of our home. We have only seen water one other time on this street.
Naughty Ybor 7-Eleven!
Parking a semi on 7th Avenue at 9:30 p.m. on a Friday night? WTF! Blocking traffic on 7th Avenue! Then the drivers had the nerve to argue with city officials. The police were then called. So much for being a good neighbor in the Historic Ybor City District. We don’t care how big you think you are, this was just plain rude! Shame on 7-Eleven!
Channelside Drive Closing
This week is the start of the billion-dollar redevelopment of Channelside. Channelside Drive will be closed from South Jefferson Street. The closure is expected to last for eight weeks. A BIG Mark & Carrie TIP: If you are going to the Amalie Arena, park in Ybor City and take the TECO Streetcar to the arena.
