New Year's Eve "Drops"
New Year's Eve. A time to reflect on the year that passed and to make those resolutions for the next one.
It's also a time for cities across the country to copy New York City and have a "drop" of some type to ring in the beginning of the new year.
We all know about New York City dropping the crystal ball, and here in Atlanta they of course drop a giant peach. Now take a gander at what some other cities across the good ole USA are dropping.
Fayetteville, AR - A hog
Key West, FL - A conch shell
Miami and Orlando, FL - An orange
Eastport, Maine - A sardine
Raleigh, NC - An acorn
Beavertown, PA - A beaver, of course
Hershey, PA - A giant Hershey Kiss
Nashville, TN - A guitar
Plymouth, WI - An 80-pound decorated cheese wedge
Mobile, AL - A giant electric Moon Pie is raised
and Panama Ciy, FL - A giant beach ball
How's this for cool. A reader sent me a picture of the cheese drop from 2010 in Plymouth, WI.
