We used to watch the ball drop but it's gotten old over time. So we decided to make it a big movie night. Make some food, have some drinks and enjoy the evening with family.

When I was a kid, we would watch it every year. No one ever told me that we were watching with a 3 hour delay on the West Coast and everyone "celebrating" in the video had gone home three hours earlier. It made New Year's feel like a big ass lie. Put two and two together on my own though when I was about 23.
