For he’s a jolly good tributary! For he’s a jolly good tributary! Today the legacy of the hardest-working river in Miami is being honored at the eleventh annual Miami River Day. The big celebration will include riverboat tours, food, magicians, live performances from the Spam Allstars and Luis Enrique, reenactments of historical riverside incidents, and more festivities, all dedicated to the river that has endured more scandals than any local official.
