Who's Been Behind Bars in Tampa

We recently came across an interesting web site that Hillsborough Country Sheriff's Office has set up to search public records of arrests made here in Tampa. We were entertained for hours when we discovered how many of our friends and pro skateboarders were found in the search. It even provides the photo the police take of you when you're getting booked in the slammer. Click here to check the site out and see if you can find anyone you know (or any pros who got picked up while in town for contests). Don't forget to look up your teachers, bosses, co-workers, etc. If you find someone interesting, post the URL in the comments below. Happy bounty hunting.

UPDATE! Here's the link to the Polk County Jail Inquiry Page. Polk County is where Lakeland, Florida is.

We found plenty of spots, new friends, and had many good times in a quick weekend trip to Atlanta. Check out some photos from our trip.
We saved several photos for use in places other than the website so be on the lookout for those also. We also hit up this place called Blood 'n Fire, a homeless shelter in Atlanta with a bowl and several other ramps. Photos from that are coming up tomorrow.
