2019 Memorial Day TAP Card

I was at the Irwindale Gold Line station and saw this Memorial Day TAP Card at one of the machines.  I haven't seen any information about this TAP Card on Metro's propaganda machine-The Source, but I took the Gold Line on Wednesday to get the Obama TAP Cards at Union Station.  One the way back, there wasn't a sticker at any Gold Line station, where I could see the machines that sell the TAP Cards.

On Monday, May 13, 2019, The Source has information about the 2019 Memorial Day TAP Card!

Even though I was reasonably sure I would get this TAP Card, I waited until somebody came and bought a TAP Card.  It was his first time taking Metro, and those machines aren't the most user friendly.  So, I helped him buy a card and load fare.  He got this Memorial Day TAP Card.  Then, I put in my money and got this TAP Card.

Memorial Day 2019 is just a few days before the 75th Anniversary of the DDay!  Without American and Allied troops storming the beaches of Normandy, this maybe a very different world!

2019 Obama Blvd. TAP Card

On May 8, 2019 Metro's propaganda machine- The Source- said the Barack Obama Blvd. TAP Cards are being sold at Metro customer service centers.  So, I was able to go to Union Station and get this TAP Card!  To my shock, I got very good customer service!  The man helping me was very nice.  I asked him if there are any scratches on the TAP card and he checked to make sure there weren't any!  Unlike that lady, who needs to be fired, she has no customer service skills at all.  She was so rude when I bought the 2018 Central Avenue Jazz Festival TAP Card!

This TAP Card commemorates Rodeo Road being renamed Obama Blvd.  This area is now known as Presidents' Row, as there are also streets named Washington, and Adams!!

This TAP Card has a very nice design!
