Tim O'Connor's Big Weekend in Tampa

Published 2/10/2017 by Chaz Miley

For no reason other than to have a big weekend, Tim came to Tampa and had a big weekend. We showed him around Tampa and our local hood, Seminole Heights aka #SHMF, where impersonating security guards and skateboard coaching went down, among other recreation as seen here.
