Renaming
@FlyLouisville for Ali isn't only fitting because he seemed to fly when he was in the ring, but because even as he became perhaps the quintessential citizen of the world, Muhammad Ali remained a proud Louisvillian.Show this thread
For millions of people around the globe, our airport is their first impression of Louisville, and I can think of no better way to introduce travelers to our community than Muhammad Ali and the values he embodied and fought for his entire life.

Now their impression can be our violent culture! Boxing! Such a great sport, beat another MAN in the head til he is knocked unconscious! Fighting = retaliation = gun violence! Now everyone can see us as divisive bourbon drinking red necks that is ready to fight!

My mother's remains were scattered at Cave Hill cemetery directly below Ali's gravesite. Always to be looked after by The Greatest!

Self-proclaimed lol. And let’s be real, he was a little cray and that was before years of boxing.

Why won’t we choose someone who served and died for this country that is from Louisville. I support you rep Yarmouth but this I do not support.
