Speaker 1 (00:00):
Previously on your Morning Show with Michael del Choono.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Yeah, Royce here all right, So Rory, if your morning
show listeners kids are headed to Florida, whether it be
the Panhandle or all the way to Miami Beach or
up the East coast to Daytona, not so fast, they're
not welcome.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Well, that's Miami Beach in particular, sending out that message,
just the city of Miami Beach saying, look, we've had enough,
enough of the violence, enough of the debauchery, enough of
the traffic. So they are making the experience as miserable
as possible in order to deter spring Breakers.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I have to interrupt and ask you how do they
do that? How do they make it as miserable as
we see? Why did you interrupt me? Because I was
about to tell you tell me parking is one hundred
bucks a car, and that's a few blocks away. If
you're caught parking illegally, more than five hundred dollars to
tow your car, streets are closed south to twenty third,
so you're not going to get anywhere near South Beach
(00:56):
with your car. Essentially, they're playing whack a mole spring Breakers.
Every city try to put up barricades to keep them
out along the way they're going somewhere. A lot of
times they're going to go to more family friendly Orlando
just because of the volume of hotel rooms. But a
lot of them are making those international trips, especially on
cruise ships, where they think they can get away with
(01:17):
a stuff they couldn't get away with on land.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
What about Fort Lauderdale right next door to Miami.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Yeah, again, another community that doesn't want things to go crazy.
You're all welcome to visit if you're going to quietly
go to the beach all day, have dinner, and then
quietly be tucked away in bed at eight thirty at night.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
What they don't want is the big beer drinking crowd.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
No alcohol on the beach, no glass bottles on the beach,
no playing music on the beach. The list of restrictions
goes on and on and again, limiting traffic so much
that it's nearly impossible to get to the shoreline anyway.
And then curfews are in place as well, so you
know a lot of places have to shut down by
eleven or twelve o'clock at night.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
I'm doing research over here real fast.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
I don't think they're or is ever a video series girl,
Girl's Gone Quiet, So it's usual spring break is not quiet,
all right.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Look, every town that's had this has had to push
back Daytona Beach for Lauderdale, Panama City, Pensacola. You know,
they've all tried to say, look, we want some of this,
but a lot.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Of times it just gets to be too much.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Yeah. I just I was never a spring breaker myself.
I think one spring break I went to spring training
for baseball, But I mean never, never a beach, never
the craziness.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
All right. So, but this is a city thing, not
a state thing, because.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Florida makes a lot of money, don't they sure, And
they're trying to walk that fine line, if you know.
And again they're not saying you can't come, they're just saying,
you know, don't expect to have what we saw in
the nineteen eighties with MTV spring Break and the like.
You know, if you want to come and go to
the beach and hang out, that's just fine, but don't
think you're going to have the big party atmosphere that
(02:51):
you saw thirty, forty, fifty years ago.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Yeah, And if you're wondering who the mayor of Miami
is it's now Dean Warmer. Dean Warmer he doesn't want
any Duncan riots in his three bipe Beach is very
good reporting. We'll talk again tomorrow. I apologize for interrupting.
After all, it is your morning show.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Miss a little, miss a lot, miss a lot, and
we'll miss you. It's your morning show with Michael del
