Metrocenter Owner Responds

The owner of Metrocenter Mall, Emily Seifert Sanders, responded to concerns about the mall's reopening.  Several tenants told WJTV they paid deposits to rent space back in the spring yet they had not been able to move in to their units nor had they been able to contact management.  Ms. Sanders responded on Facebook:


Ms. Sanders directed tenants to specific sections of their leases that covered lease terminations and refunds.  She said refunds would be given to those who requested them. 

 Kingfish note: A couple of thoughts.

1. Why is she addressing tenants through a Facebook video when she could just as easily call them?

2. The Secretary of State issued a notice to dissolve the company since it has not filed its annual paperwork.

" Ms. Sanders."

Does anyone now if she's related to Enoch Sanders ?

Why Facebook? Because it would be obvious when she called them from the Cayman Islands.

Anyway, aren't all business communications conducted through Fakebook?

Excuses (and updates) are no substitute for performance.

Did she actually buy the Metrocenter?

Who put up the money?

Surely I’m not the only one that enjoys the entertainment spectacle of this. It seems like anything related to Jackson nowadays is literally like a SNL skit.

I thought Trump created Opportunity Zones for projects such as these. See George Flaggs and his resurrection of Vicksburg.

Facebook is the choice platform of scammers, fake news, and grifters. So fitting she’s posting there...

No opening date = ducks not in a row.

You tell by the way she speaks and what she said (a) she's learning as she goes, and (b)Metrocenter has about an 85% chance of never reopening. Hide and watch.

Real Landlords don't enthusiastically explain how to cancel leases. The leases are the basis on which she will be paid to reopen. She's trying to sound legitimate by telling her tenants' we're going to reopen, but if you want to cancel your lease, here's how to do it....." to make them feel at ease.

What she's really saying is she has no idea what she's doing

how many tenants are paying rent? did she promise space to more than one tenant?

this whole things reaks of fraud.

All she has to do is cut the grass that is growing in the parking lot and unlock the door, if she wants to “open.”
It is unlikely that there will be any tenants that would attract the general public.
I would bet that her future tenants would include a new Adult Toy Store and a weed dispensary.

Use the parking lot as a reality car-jacking TV show location, with a little armed robbery thrown in for variety.

What is that thing in the glass on her table?

Anyone have a sterile copy of these leases? They have to be loaded with lols.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
