Top Ten Most Likely Ways for a New Yorker to Die in a Hurricane
We had so much fun with this, we came up with eleven. I’m a New York City resident and had some fun being creative, exaggerating about the colorful reactions and activities of my brethren here in the Big Apple. What else are you going to do when cooped up indoors for so many hours with just basic television to watch? - 11 - Mesmerized by local TV news coverage and dying of starvation after forgetting to eat
- 10 - Drowned at hurricane party… bobbing for apples
- 9 - Bottling and/or drinking East River water for survival
- 8 - Seeking West Coast surfing conditions in East Coast hurricane
- 7 - Opportunely trying to finally score Book of Mormon tickets
- 6 - Ball actually drops at Times Square
- 5 - Residences on Rikers Island overrun by storm surge
- 4 - Struck by projectile while protesting for Gay Divorce
- 3 - Being a Bloomberg groupie suddenly got dangerous
- 2 - Choosing the worst of all possible days to visit Roosevelt Island
- 1 - Trampled to death in aisle 4 seeking slice bread
