Tampa Bay offers an array of interesting places to visit and explore, including beautiful beaches, aquariums, theme parks, breweries, art museums, parks, and restaurants. But whether you’re a local or a tourist, there are plenty of spots you might be missing. Why not step into the dark night in Ybor City to discover the streets and spaces where stories of early immigrants unfold on a walking ghost tour? Or watch the 1940s sponge diving video and then soak up the Greek culture and kooky kitsch at Spongeorama in Tarpon Springs. Climb through the great aboveground root forest at Edward Medard Conservation Park in Plant City. Or wait for the first weekend of each month and dig through the treasures at Brocante Vintage Market in St. Pete. In this second edition of 100 Things to Do in Tampa Bay Before You Die, you’ll find one hundred ideas to help you get to know Tampa Bay, or get to know it even better.

Dominic Amiccis Sicilian blood was up because he wanted his stolen money back and theTampa Bay Kid dead. The Cuban cigar smuggling operation into Ybor City had been lining Amiccis pockets with easy money until the Kids gang of street rats had interrupted the flow. While the Kid was away at his mothers funeral, his band of half-breed teens had made a mistake. Now everybody was paying for it. After Amiccis henchmen sunk the pontoon boat that the Kid and his friends lived on and started killing off the kids one by one, the Kid takes actions into his own hands. Soon everybody wants a piece of the Tampa Bay Kid: the nasty gangsters of Ybor City, Tampa Police Homicide Detective Dave OBrien, the lovely television news reporter Laura Jeanette, and the meticulous and cunning hit woman known in the underworld as D.M. Under the unrelenting pressure, something is going to explode. Can the Kid bust out of the mean streets of Tampa Bay and find a new way of living? Can he save his girlfriend Kim-Lu and his loyal mentor Doc, the retired professor? The Kids hope is spiked when running from certain death. He dashes right into the arms of Buck Running Cloud. Buck persuades the Kid to come to the high desert to find peace. Another journey unfolds - leading the Kid to a breathtaking wilderness and a way of living beyond his wildest dreams. Armed with his new experience from Camp Foley and Buck Running Cloud, the Kid returns to Tampa Bay to settle all accounts saving the big bang for Dominic Amicci. But nobody said it was going to be easy.
