What southern Florida is talking about this week:
The million dollar pitbull.
And no, I am not referring to our two boys ('cause, after all, let's face it -- Casanova James and Ozzie [Octavius] Julius are priceless.)
This Pitbull is the bigger one of the two in the accompanying photo ... and the thing that has tongues a-wagging is the deal he got from the other guy in the picture who used to be the head of a state tourism agency called, accurately enough, "Visit Florida".
It turns out one million dollars is the going price for two social media posts a month and one video highlighting how we've got "sexy beaches" down here where we live, plus a few other commitments now known because the contract that was supposed to be a trade secret was released to the public.
Which I guess is all the long way to say ... our two pitbulls ALSO have a social media presence and they ALSO star in videos on their page every now and then AND they are available to help promote Florida for a *fraction* of the cost of Mr. 305. Just sayin' ... cal me!?!
