They say NYC cops are the best cops in the world, ask any random person adorned in blue
on Tuesday Febraury 8th, 2012 and they'd give you a pretty scowl look. A reported Million
plus packed the the Big Apple in hopes of catching Big Blue celebrate their Superbowl victory
in the traditional ticker tape parade, the majority of them probably only saw a glimpse of a
float maybe 100 yards away. A lot of the blocks that lead to the to the street where the parade
was going were blocked off with no access pass the NYPD officers. A lot of the Big Blue faithful
were left watching the backs of other fans who were right there by the action, "They got here
early maybe around 6, 7 AM we started closing it down around 9," a New York police officer said.
When that many people gather in one place, safety is key and while the majority of dissapointed Giants
fans didn't see it that way some people were very appreciative that safety was the big point.
All in all, if you didn't get a good view of the Parade, you were still in the greatest City in the world
filled with millions of loud, fun and happy fans on a historic day. Hopefully the excitement of the parade
was able to to get you through the bad cough that kept you out of work or school that day.
