Vacation in NYC... What to do?
#14022171 - 02/24/11 08:00 PM (12 years, 11 months ago) |

So my girlfriend and I are going to NYC March 16th-20th to visit her godmother, and I was wondering if there were any shroomerites in the area to offer some advice on cool shit to do for someone who's never been. Already planned the major tourist crap like broadway, statue of liberty, times square, central park, the met, etc.
Thanks in advance!

Could walk around the lower east side and chinatown. Cool architecture though as for things to do, the LES has become pretty generic...still fun though

I may check that out. I'm no "tourist", but there are certain experiences I'd like to have and things to see/do before I die.

I walked from Grand Central Station up to Central Park and back, that was cool. Met some really nice people in just one day, and nobody was rude or mean. If it wasn't so expensive, it would be nice there.

Walk your ass all over the place, for sure.
Look for illegal baby turtles in Chinatown, and order something random from a menu printed in Chinese, where everyone else is Chinese, and everyone is speaking Chinese.

I usually just eat pizza and get drunk in Penn Station. Luckily I'm not in the city often. Place is a cesspit of materialism.

you're one of those penn station drinkers... they can lead to some serious entertainment when you miss the last train of the night and have to stay there til the next morning. I saw one couple having sex in the middle of the hall

heh.. im almost an anti-tourist.
i was riding in a cab in Paris and saw the Eiffel Tower in the distance. i thought to myself, "oh hey. there it is.. huh."
that was it. i never went to see the tower. i dont really even have a desire to go the next time im there. id rather chill in a coffee shop or grab a beer and chat it up with some random person for three hours.

for sure
aside from walking through Times Square, I did nothing on the tourist list of New York.
Though I did take a piss barely concealed a block from Grand Central Station at 4 am, which was pretty dumb.

instead of doing all the normal tourist crap, you should buy the book "speedology" by timothy "speed" levitch, and spend a day or two going on the tours in his book.
also as a new yorker i think one of the must see sights in grand central station. magnificence.

I've been to the city plenty of times and never had that issue.
I tried, I flashed some cash in a store at about 2am, a dozen guys just standing around near the register, left the store and one guy followed my friend and I, we quickly hurried down a dark alley and we turned and waited, he started around the corner, saw us standing there and he bolted out of there quick
it was epic fail

as long as you pay attention to your surroundings and arent retarded you should be fine.
keep your head up. make eye contact with people on the train (but dont stare). dont wave cash around like Pris did.

Thank you all for the advice! As far as drugs go, I don't know where to get them in NYC. Hell, I live in South Texas and can't find cid or MDMA here for the life of me. Probably because I'm so introverted. Definitely gonna follow most of your advice. Keep em coming!
