And I think all major cities having big Memorial Day or July 4th Celebrations are probably automatically events you are thinking of as potential targets, right?

New York

Fleet Week

Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum | West 46th Street @ 12th Avenue | A huge celebration with ships from around the world, troops, and military aircraft.

June 19th
Athens 2004 Olympic Global Torch Relay
Athens 2004 Olympic Organizing Committee | Citywide | The first-ever global journey of the Olympic Torch will span 34 cities and 26 countries over 35 days. New York City will celebrate the arrival of the Olympic Torch with an approximate 35 mile run through the streets of the City, followed by a public celebration honoring the Olympic Spirit and the Athens 2004 Games.

Didn't think of the torch till I saw this and was reminded...so that should also go for any other torch city, perhaps...including LA, St. Louis, and Atlanta (in the US) http://www.athens2004.com/athens2004/page/legacy?lang=en&cid=9f587ae4be659f00VgnVCMServer28130b0aRCRD

I posted something about Fleet Week a little while ago (post 3119/replies followed), with a the combination of national holiday, military, civilian, vacationers. There is one other point, however. Icing on the cake, the ships are not "at sea", they are docked in the Hudson. Only one or two smaller ships need to be taken out and you're larger ships are blocked in from immediate exit.
This event must be watched.
