A friend who works downtown let me know:
"The New York Giants had a ticker tape parade up Broadway because they
won the Super Bowl. Everyone in the office stopped working and went to
the windows. They were throwing shredded documents over the street and
hanging from the balconies on the 30th floor. They even provided food
for us. It was a like a 2 hour party in the office."

stuff can happen, and you won't be aware of it unless someone tells you.
Informant: "A giant ogre in bronze armor destroyed the statue at Chatham
Square, then moseyed along Canal Street singing "God Bless America"
while throwing cars into jewelry shops, until he was finally subdued by
a tactical assault squad using rocket launchers."
Answerer: And this is important because ... ?
