New York City is only allowing a limited number of spectators to watch the ball drop in Times Square this New Year’s Eve, but they will be required to show proof of vaccination as well as wear a mask.

This year’s New Year’s Eve in Times Square will be a bit unconventional, as was last year’s. This year, the city is capping the number of in-person spectators to 15,000 as opposed to the tens of thousands of individuals who typically attend the annual event.

Time Square New Years is about the least glamorous of all places to be New Years. It lost it’s punch several years ago. Only New Yorkers think it’s grand for them.

I’ll probably watch a bit of Fox’s New Year’s Eve from Nashville instead, lol. But I used to like watching Rockin New Year’s Eve before and after Dick Clark passed.

HOW are they going to control the count?

IIRC, a number of streets converge there.

Nobody should be watching this nonsense tonight.

I'll be watching MST3K while drinking champagne. Then I'll try to get some sleep.

Has this now become a ‘private elitist New Years bash?

Enforce that. No way to do so, if people decide to come there aren’t enough police in NYC to stop them, so bring it on, 250,000 people.

I recommend my namesake movie on MST3K. It’s a particular favorite of mine. 😀

If everybody decided to just show up, what would they do then?

Just pretend you are BLM or Antifa and they won’t do a damn thing.

If I don’t watch it, will it still be 2021 when I wake up tomorrow?

Who dreams up this stupid shit? The entire country has gone Moonbat-crazy.

The whole Covid thing is a scam. The CDC just admitted that there is no difference in flu and Covid tests. I’m glad I didn’t succumb to this crap with shots and masks like the rest of the sheep on the planet.

They just showed a clip from Times Square during halftime of the football game and EVERY, and I mean EVERY, single person was wearing a mask. What a bunch of ignorant clowns.
