New Year’s & Times Square
Will someone please explain to me why it is that the entire rest of the continent is supposed to be thrilled to watch a bunch of Yankees cavorting in Times Square? Why it is that the residents of the other 49 states are treated to images of someone else’s party? It’s utterly ridiculous.
As an aside, there are two news tickers in Times Square: one for actual news, and one for sports. The sports one scrolls significantly slower. The reason is left as an exercise for the reader.
