There are scant few figures in history for whom you can't find some dirt on. Like if we get rid of Columbus Day should we also get rid of MLK day because of this?

I think history ought to be weighed


MLK stays. Columbus, I don't really care about. He can stay, too.

Do we still celebrate Columbus Day anywhere? I think that can REALLY go, like gone.


We do still celebrate Columbus Day in Miami, in a pretty unique way. It is the day of the year when we throw what may just be the biggest boat party/orgy in the world. There are two main events, the Miami Columbus Day Regatta and the Miami Columbus Day Weekend at Elliot Key. Google it! It usually happens on Biscayne Bay South, SE, or SW of Key Biscayne, depending on the weather. Thousands of boats throw their anchors and tie themselves to each other, and people walk or swim from one boat to another and get drunk, high, and naked. The party usually begins on Friday and ends on Monday morning, though some people stay for a full week. You've got to see it to believe it!
