The Miami Herald has an article: “Jimmy Buffett joins effort to restore Miami Marine Stadium”
Singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett has publicly endorsed preservationists’ efforts to restore and reopen the city-owned Miami Marine Stadium on Virginia Key, the site of many a Parrothead’s fondest — if also foggy — memories.

I hope you’ll take my ideas, I’m looking forward to it! Try to cover off on some graffiti characters as well if possible, they’re everywhere at the moment.
