YBOR PROUD

We have always said that there are only 3 kinds of people in Ybor City. 1st are our “FRIENDS and GUESTS” who we all truly treat like family and love. 2nd there are “THE MALL EMPOLYEES.”   These people come to Ybor.  Then right after their job is over they run to their cars and leave ASAP. 3rd are the “Yborista’s”   These are people who truly understand and get what Ybor City is all about. Many of us live here, work here eat & party here. The True Yborista’s call Ybor the Island of Ybor. When we are out of Ybor we are off the island and cannot wait to return.

This week Yborista Tom DeGeorge, co-owner of the Crowbar, posted a Yborista Post. We totally agree with everything he wrote.  Here it is….

For the record. I love my community. I love my neighborhood. Ybor is a beautiful thing to me. I’ve never asked it to be anything more than a quirky special place where I opened my business, bought my home, fell in love with my wife, and all because I had already fallen in love with Ybor City. I love it here and I love what it stands for. I love the chickens and the roosters. I love the different artists. I love that we’re not hip.

I love that we know that the people that think we aren’t hip are the ones that are actually the ones who just “don’t get it”. This town is special. It’s history and pedigree is rich. We will be forever and I’m happy to be a part of it.
