Forget the boring crystal ball. Arizona cities celebrate New Year’s Eve by dropping all sorts of items.
Many of us enjoy watching the Times Square crystal-covered ball drop every New Year’s Eve while counting down the last seconds of the year.
But did you know you can go to celebrations like this in person in Arizona? The only thing is, it’s not your traditional ball drop—cities across the state lower all sorts of items to ring in the new year.
Here are some of the quirky festivities going on this year and how to attend them:
- Flagstaff Pinecone Drop
- Prescott Boot Drop
- Show Low Deuce of Clubs Drop
- Tucson Taco Drop
