As juvenile and childish as the title may be, nothing sums up the experience I had with my friends at the grand opening of Tampa's Curtis Hixon Park than the aforementioned. "It's like we're not even citizens," Dylan Perry commented to a local journalist after Dylan, Austin England, and I were escorted from the Park premises by an irate and demeaning Tampa Police officer. It's just so nice to know that the taxes that I pay, that fund parks like Curtis Hixon, don't allow me to use them for my recreational activity of choice...skateboarding.
