    I had such a great time at my first event and will certainly be doing it again.Because my group was in the 10th car and it was such a long walk on the pltfoarm to get there, we didn’t (unfortunately) get too many normal’ people to join in our cars, but that certainly didn’t take away from anything.The most memorable moment was a little unamused old man. I’d have to guess that he had wanted to get on an earlier car, saw what was going on, and kept walking to hopefully avoid it. He shuffled onto our car and, without looking around, loudly stated, There are a bunch of weirdos on the trains today Aww, Jesus Christ, you’re here too! Overall, it was an incredible time to be had, but I do have one big gripe After the event ended at Union Square, left without command or direction, it wasn’t long before mob mentality took over, and the spirit was lost. A couple thousand people singing and dancing in a park is one thing, but when a few hundred make begin disrupting traffic and bursting their way into stores, it gives the entire event a bad name.Unfortunately, I can’t put the blame completely on the ones involved in the mayhem. They were looking for an way to continue the celebration, didn’t have an outlet, and once mob mentality was in charge, they didn’t seem to know any better.I’d have preferred to see the celebration at Union last about 30 minutes, then have people with megaphones disperse the group give them options of places to go (local bars offering specials and such), but tell everyone that they have to leave- so it can’t get out of hand.
