A crowd  of over 1,500+ gathered for this years Ybor City Holiday Spirit Tree Lighting. The 40′ tree was going to be lit by Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn. The mayor picked up a cute young lad. Pointed and asked the boy, “Do you know who that is?” The young smiling boy said, “Yes, Santa Clause!” Then Mayor asked who is that? ” The boy said timidly, “That’s Mrs Santa Clause!!”

    Finally before turning the lights on to the decorated tree the Mayor asked, “Do you know who the Grinch is?

    The boy voiced, “Donald Trump?”

    The whole audience went wild. We will remember that tree lighting!!!
