If you love drunken people, it's paradise!


In all seriousness, it's a very unique experience, as the sheer energy generated by thousands of people all in one space together is like nothing I've ever experienced. Partially due to it having been 2000, partially just it being NYC, people were literally jumping all over each other, everyone kissing whomever they could, cops sharing beers with everyone too.

I will say though, that it can get very wild too and people can be very rowdy AND definitely DO NOT even think about driving in. Train it or nothing else. The traffic is madness to the highest degree.


If you plan to go in, I'd say, get there earlier rather than later, so you can feel the energy build up and also, so you can get a more prime location to see the ball drop.


Also, if this December stays the way it is, it might end up being 60 degrees on New Year's. Al Gore, you were right!

Take care all.
