And don't forget $20 for a PITCHER of beer, as compared to $5 here in Tampa. I would have to agree with you, drinks and club prices are ridiculous in Miami, but just like any other major metropolitan city, its going to be that way. Try going to L.A. or Vegas, its the same way.

Spent time down there - wasn't impressed. If Tampa were more like Miami, I'd probably live elsewhere. Could have easily picked Miami as a place to live - didn't suit my or satisfy me. You can have it.

Actually it was Bud Lite i believe, yes ****ty domestic lite beer, but still, that doesn't justify charging $20 for a pitcher you can get here for $5 just because its in South Beach! Along with $50 cover charge to get in any of the big clubs there, whereas at most you pay here is $15-$20, just sayin...

Ok you are talking about the biggest tourist trap in the area and comparing it to a hole in the wall in tampa... how much is one bud lite at a bucs game? $10 $12 dollars?!?

I see what you are trying to do here but lets be honest if I was at a small restaurant in Miami I could get the same pitcher for the same price.


This is what I hate about this forum, if you are gonna bad mouth a place at least throw FACTS out there. How much is the cover and a beer to get into a club when the superbowl was here, how about new years? uwotm8!

Is there anything you can do in Miami that you cannot do in Tampa?

Name an alligator Elvis and chain him up in your houseboat?

Wear pastel Armani suits with a Bren Ten in a shoulder holster and a 3 day beard?
