Tampa is a happening place. Hipsters are everywhere. You see them in faded jeans, plad shorts, tee shirts, beards, wool hats, drinking craft beers, hanging in coffee houses, smoking Cuban cigars, playing chess, and seen in the trendy Hyde Park, So-Ho, and Chanelside areas. Today, we were invaded. Hipsters from all over the country came to Tampa for two major events - the Gasparilla Music Festival and the Cigar City Brewery Festival. Both have brought hipsters and money into the area. I really don't know where their money comes from. I mean the whole persona they exude is of slackers living off daddy's money and not giving a thought about the future. Well, whatever they have figured out missed me by a mile. I work seven days a week and deal with stress I would never encountered if I lived a normal life. But hell...I do have a Cuban cigar. The images are from outside the Ybor brewery as the Hipsters began moving in. Lots of taxi fares today.
