Back to NYC Pride 2022

After a two-year pandemic break, NYC Pride returned in June 2022! Of course, the BB Team came back and was right in the middle of it all.

The Pride March route was cut shorter, and the number of marching groups was cut down too. It only lasted about 5 hours instead of 9 in 2019! The crowds still came out which made it way too crowded in the lower ends of the parade. Some blocks the crowd was at least 8 people deep. What were the crowd control planners thinking?

Anyway, the BB Team had a grand time watching it all unfold. There is no other Pride March and PrideFest like New York City.
