Isla Verde to the airport is walkable, Santurce to airport isn't. (well, it is but it's a good 1.5 hours to walk).

But at least it's not hot and humid......wait....what?

Very sad event. It behooves everyone to have your affairs in order as you never know when your number comes up.

Not that anyone deserves this, but perhaps hanging around a shady establishment in a 3rd world country isn't the best of ideas because of the type of people that hang around? Just sayin'

This is the type of comment I expect from someone who think Puerto Rico is a country.

A post said this was near the cockfight ring. I assumed it was near the location in Isla Verde.
I used to ride with the AA crews to their hotel in Isla Verde following evening ready reserve.
For early morning ready reserve, the buses didn’t run....so we would cut behind the Embassy Suites and Pueblo grocery store and hoof it to the airport. About a 20 min walk IFRC

No, one of our hotels is near the cockfighting place (near is an understatement, it's right next to it).

Obviously I know they are a territory, but the emphasis was on "3rd world"

Go ahead and give this man the "dumbest comment of the year" award now..I know we're only two months in, but this one will be tough to beat.

Maybe the President of Puerto Rico can hand it to him personally.

Bottom line is wrong place at the wrong time. It could happen to anyone. RIP to him and condolences to his family and friends.
