Miami Plans Castro Death Party in Orange Bowl

MIAMI — With Fidel Castro seriously ill, the city of Miami is making plans to throw a party at the Orange Bowl when the Cuban president dies.
The city commission earlier this month appointed a committee — whose official job is to "Discuss an event at the Orange Bowl in case expected events occur in Cuba" — to plan the party. Such a gathering has long been part of the city's Castro death plan, but firming up the specifics has become more urgent since Castro became ill last summer and turned over power to his brother, Raul.
City Commissioner Tomas Regalado, a Cuban American, came up with the idea of using the venue for an event timed to Castro's demise. The Orange Bowl was the site of a speech by President Kennedy in 1961 promising a free Cuba and in the 1980s it served as a camp for refugees from the Mariel boatlift.
Castro "represents everything bad that has happened to the people of Cuba for 48 years," Regalado said. "There is something to celebrate, regardless of what happens next. ... We get rid of the guy."
At the committee's first meeting last week, former state Rep. Luis Morse stressed the need for an uplifting theme for the party — one not preoccupied with a human being's passing. The committee discussed including such a theme on T-shirts that would be made by private vendors for the event.

RACISM!
Everybody, Salsa!
RACISM? Fidel looks white to me! The red can only be spotted when he opens his mouth...
That actually sounds live a hell of a party to attend!
Awsome. When can I get tickets?
It's not racism.
It's vitalism.
Will this event before or after the reconquest of Havana?
That will be one helluva party!!!!!
I can tell you - it will be one HUGE party. Definitely want to be there for that.
The priest told him, "God's love is a heavy burden." Then he asked that as he hoped for salvation would Pedro accept the penance?
Remember what he said?
Rythm is gonna getcha......
A lot of these people are celebrating because they think they're going to get back land and/or houses they or their families left behind all those years ago. They're going to be very disappointed.
Why not? Castro was the best thing that ever happened for the Cubans that made it to America.
They hold no illusions about that, they are going to be celebrating the fact that finally families won't be separated by Fidel's regime, as they have for the past 40 years.
Yeah, but will they allow tailgate parties?
They should invite everyone famous in entertainment/Hollywood and see who, besides Gloria Estefan and Andy Garcia, show up to celebrate. It would really show Cuban-Americans, and for that matter ALL Americans, who their friends are.
I hope you're right. I think, though, that relations between the US and Cuba won't be normalized until either Raoul Castro or George Bush are out of office.
This will be a riot to follow along in the MSM. Between the leftist papers and Hollywood, their collective heads will explode!
