Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Graham McIntosh asks, “How do you and other Americans celebrate the New Year?”

Personally, I do absolutely nothing. I go to bed and wake up as if it were any other day.

That being said, I’d say the most popular things are fireworks and drinking. Some people watch the ball drop in Times Square in New York, and there is a tradition of singing the song Auld Lang Syne, even though most people don’t know the lyrics beyond the first few lines.
