It has been years since the last time I attended a New Year's Eve celebration. I was either working the graveyard shift somewhere or just stayed home. The last I did anything of consequence on New Year's Eve was seven years ago in Las Vegas.
The following caught my attention as it looks fun, but a bit, um, bizarre. It is an article by Passport Magazine on celebrating the New Year in Key West, Florida.
It starts with:
Key West is the place to be for New Year’s celebrations that include unique, joyful festivities to welcome in 2023! Join renowned drag queen, Sushi, for the 25th year of “Red Shoe Drop” events. At the Bourbon St. Pub complex on Duval St., attendees can expect live street performances and banter from host Sushi who will sit atop the famous big red shoe as it is lowered from the pub’s balcony to the street below.
Another fun option for visitors to Key West is to stop by Sloppy Joe’s Bar to watch as a giant conch shell is lowered at the strike of midnight. Spend the evening and enjoy a rooftop celebration hosted by DJ Sanaris, and dance the night away before and after the giant clock counts down to 2023.
