So I took my son to Jimbo's. Does that make me a bad parent?

I've gone to his last couple of birthday celebrations, so if the place is still there, is he having a bash this year?

You missed it by about five weeks.

 

[DebbyDiver]

But, did he actually have the party this year?

 

[deepstops]

Yes, it was Sunday April 11th (birthday #83 for Jimbo).

I looked for it online earlier in the year, didn't see it, then forgot about it. I went to the previous two or three, I forget exactly, lol. Did you go?

I was invited by some friends but I haven't been to Jimbos in about 10 years. I think I'll try to get Rob to go there the next time I'm down there.

Is there anything you do not know about S. Florida and the Key's? :worship:

Virginia Key's Jimbo's hangs on, partying Old Florida-style - Miami-Dade - MiamiHerald.com

A must read.
Time is running out......
If they are still operating this time next year, we ought to attend.

Is a little worried about Jimbo's Place.

Thanks so much for posting this thread about Jimbo's! While in FL last week, the manpal and I headed over on a Sunday afternoon. (He's lived in Miami Beach for over 2 decades and had never heard of the place.) I shot some pics and we played bocce ball with the regulars. Definitely a highlight of the trip... after the dives at Boynton and BHB.

Annasea,
I am glad you got to see Jimbo's.
It's a pretty interesting place sometimes.
I guess you "got it".
It is not for everyone. Chug
Will hit it again soon.
