Vinnie the Pigeon's NYC Weekly Absurdities — Episode 6
Vinnie's back with three NYC disasters: a man who fell from the upper deck at MSG during a Goose concert, a chess player stabbed mid-game at Union Square, and two million Knicks parade fans locked out of every viewing pen by 7:30 AM — so they climbed the scaffolding.
