Super Parade for Super Giants

Hello to whoever is actually reading this :)

Today was the ticker-tape parade for the NY Giants to celebrate their incredible victory over the much-maligned New England PatriotsSuper Bowl XLII. This was a big deal here in NY because everyone hates the Patriots around here. Also, there has not been a ticker-tape parade in NY since 2000, when the won the World Series.

I have never been to a ticker-tape parade before, so I was very curious to see what it was like. I was expecting something similar to New Year’s Eve in Times Square. Luckily, my office building is right along the parade route, so I didn’t even have to go outside (and brave the drizzle) to enjoy the festivities. Here are some of the pictures I took today.
