Keith Walsh
Keith Walsh and homies from Dublin, Ireland – thanks for coming and being a part of it. What a weekend. It’s time to get home and get a little rest for one last long ass workday on Monday that starts with a recap meeting on how we can improve Tampa Am, what we learned from this weekend, and of course putting together all the coverage like these photos here. Thanks everyone for another great weekend!
