I still remember to this day freezing my butt off walking around and about in 1997 bar & club hopping on NYE.
NYE in 2017 was bone chilling cold as well. Surprised that wasn't mentioned.
I was 27 or 28 when this stupid running around with friends finally ended.
Nothing beats staying home for new years.
I can celebrate any weekend as well if not better than this overrated holiday.
I don’t know what’s inside the heads of people waiting for the ball to drop on Broadway. Not much I assume. Primitive entertainment for simpletons.

Sometimes grey matter, sometimes empty pockets of hot air....................
I DID Times Square for New Year's Eve ONCE, 1968 or 1969 but we had the good sense to have tickets to a Broadway show so we didn't have to stand in the cold for hours. Saw something called LET'S SING YIDDISH because tickets were available and cheap. (Probably TWOFERS...anyone remember them?>
Little did I know that it was actually IN YIDDISH, which I do not know a word of not being a Jew, except by later marriage.
Fortunately we were surrounded by kind and gentle souls who kept us abreast of what was going on. Our predicament provided the entertainment for all those around us.
Lesson learned: Yiddish means YIDDISH.
Having to drive back to the Lehigh Valley at 2 AM was no picnic. I was the driver and I wasn't sober, as usual.
So in the next 54 years I saw no need to repeat the Times Square extravaganza.
Like Woodstock or the Grand Canyon, you need only do it ONCE.

I remember NYE 1997. I was at time square with my GF and another couple. It was so cold that we didn't even bother to stay for the ball drop. We bailed around 11:30 and headed back to the island.

Oh my God. You drove drunk? Thats just horrific
If done once, you probably have done a thousand times before. Driving is a privilege. MADD. Some more MADD. More MADD in your trousers.

Nothing beats spending New Year's Eve in Time Square waiting for the ball to drop. You simply have not lived life until you've experienced it just once. It will fill the void in your life!
