My sister told me once that when the new years eve ball dropped in NYC, that it actually dropped and broke opena nd that little totsie rolls flew out and all the people ran to get them. It was only when I was fianally old enough to stay up and see the ball drop, and i sw that they were lowering it slowly, and then when it got to the bottom, no tootsie rolls came out, i started crying.
