EVENT DAY

32 tons of snow hit Miami’s largest mall on a particularly hot August Saturday. For 8 hours, Miami residents frolicked in the snow, tubing, throwing snowballs, making snow angels, taking selfies in a giant snowglobe, and trying out Coolpad Smartphones, virtual reality headsets, and smartwatches. This was the first time many visitors had ever seen snow!
