Marty Fleischman & Ricky Solaun to visit Puryear Park Cancha Wednesday 10am 

Two jai-alai “legends” will be making their debut appearance at America’s first and only public jai-alai court this Wednesday at 10m.  Marty Fleischman, senior blogger at this site and longtime jai-alai executive, and Ricky Solaun will be at Puryear Park in St. Petersburg – rain or shine to check out the court.  They are hoping for a few players to be out there playing so they get the full experience but understand the weather and early timing on a workday may be a hinderance.  Solaun, the former Tampa and Harfford frontcourter and player manager is expected to throw the ball around.  Marty, now a ranked pickleball player, has some stiches in his shoulder and will be able to play.

If your interested in coming, please let us know if you are.  There is a 60% chance of rain – yes rain – something we have not seen in a while.  But that is nearly two days in the forecast and you never know.
