Day 64 - Grub Fest & Coney Island



I started the morning of by visiting the NY Grub Fest on the Lower East Side. There was a variety of deli's and restaurants selling all types of food. One of the stalls was selling a squid burger that included tentacles hanging outside of the bun! BLURGH!

Afterwards, I went on the hour long commute to Coney Island with the intentions of going to the horrorfest. ALWAYS READ THE SMALL PRINT ALEX! This was an evening event not a day event.

Not to worry, I still made the most of my time there. Going on all the big rides, eating a Nathan's hotdog and winning two cuddly toys on the plate smash and water shoot! Oh and a TaZmanian devil magnet for getting 20,000 points. No biggie!

As a comparison, it is like Skegness with more rides and a much nicer beach. Really looking forward to going there in the summer. Especially for the hot dog eating competition. The current champion's record is 68. SIXTY EIGHT!
