HAPPY NEW YEAR! LOOK OUT FOR THAT TANGERINE!
A two hundred pound tangerine will drop in the state of Florida (in the United States) to ring in 2008! I hope you all have a very happy year ahead. Cheers to more weird stuff! BROOKSVILLE, Fla. (AP) — New York has the ball drop. Brooksville, Florida, will have its tangerine drop. The tangerine is the centerpiece of the annual New Year’s Eve celebration in Brooksville. Organizers bill the party as a family friendly, nonalcoholic event. The tangerine harkens back to the citrus industry that once thrived in Brooksville. The 200-pound orb will drop 40 feet during the countdown to midnight.
