1) People wearing easter bonnets a foot high for the Fifth Ave Easter Bonnet Parade - extreme?


2) A family fight (Real Housewives style) on the Staten Island ferry, complete with police interference - the terms 'pill popper' and 'husband stealer' were actually used.


3) Topless men making a lot of money by jumping over tourists in Central Park - bizarre but very cool.


4) Numerous wedding shoots all happening at once in Grand Central - find a new photo spot people.


5) Fans sleeping outside Rockefeller for days just to catch a glimpse of Jimmy Fallon - don't worry, I didn't know who he was either.


6) Crowds of people clubbing on a Sunday afternoon at 3pm because why not?


7) Thousands freezing outside on December 31st just to see a shiny ball slide down a shiny pole.


8) A burger made out of noodles - New Yorkers love a ramen burger!


9) People using an abandoned train track as their personal sundecks (aka The High Line and one of my fave spots).


10) A subway strong recital of Auld Lang Syne - a very touching moment.


11) Snow in March and 30 degree heat April - how can it possibly change that fast?


12) A naked cowgirl of around 80 years old hanging out in Times Square - well if you've err got it...
