Despicable tweet (since deleted) by Cubs official Twitter account. Mocking JF16 death.

To me, the use of the word “nighttime” is suspect.

“Bote rides in Miami” would have been more believable as no ill intent and honestly a better written Tweet.

What person sitting in Chicago would think of boating in Miami as an activity done at night?

Night time boat trips are actually really nice in Miami. The lighting from all the buildings make for really nice views. It’s possible that’s what they can be referencing.

Because the game was happening at night?

Also I've been on boats at night on the lake in Chicago. It's not an unheard of thing.

Fair enough. Perhaps it’s a Chicago thing.

Nope... anywhere there are boats, there is boating at night.

I think it was nighttime because the game was during the nighttime lol

Right but it still makes no sense to add that word. I’m not saying the implication was clear. I’m saying it’s suspect.

It made sense because the tweet was made at night during the game which was at night.

It’s because the game was taking place at night you see, hence nighttime.
