St.Petersburg. St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Kriseman criticized rapper 50 Cent for hosting a big party without masks.
Through his Twitter page, Kriseman posted: “This is not how we should celebrate the Super Bowl. He is not safe or smart. It’s a stupidity. We will look at this very carefully and it could cost someone much more than 50 cents. “
Kriseman, following the line of the health authorities, took the position to celebrate Super Bowl LV, which is played tonight at Raymond James Stadium, in Tampa (Florida), between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, in a responsible way. .
Health experts have even said that Super Bowl LV could be a “Super Spread” of the coronavirus if the precautions that have been in place for less than a year are not taken.
This weekend there were several crowded parties in Tampa, as if there was no pandemic, it was seen as something “frustrating” and “desolate” for all health workers fighting the coronavirus, which in the United States cost already the lives of more than 460,000 people.
Mayor Kriseman’s tweet was in response to filming at the party that showed a large crowd and a few guests wearing masks in a hangar at St. Petersburg airport, posted by TMZ.
Steve Aoki played a much-attended WTR Bar & Grill party at The Godfrey hosted by Dave Portnoy and Barstool Sports and the Miami E11EVEN super club.
Tampa police told Channel 8 local news that the scene there and at other parties “was incredibly disappointing.”
