New Year's Eve
In New York City

As the new year approaches, New York City gets ready for its annual Times Square celebration. The famous ball drop atop One Times Square has been a tradition dating back to 1906.

Each year, hundreds of thousands of people descend upon Times Square to experience this free event. If you are planning to join the festivities, get there early and be prepared - you'll be corralled into barricaded areas where you'll have to stay for the duration. If you leave, you can't get back to where you were.

Under a minute to go! That crazy New Year's Baby can't wait for that ball to drop! In the early 1980's, they replaced the ball with an apple - it wasn't the same. The traditional ball prevailed and is here to stay. Since 2000, the ball is now designed by Waterford crystal.

Hey, there's Dick Clark talking with former Mayor Giuliani. The Rockin' New Year is almost here. Are you ready?
