In case you haven't noticed, this week's Brix Picks are American themed in honor of the Fourth of July. Aside from reading this blog, here are some other ways you can celebrate:
In New York you can head down to this week's place to visit – Coney Island and view the gluttonous and slightly nauseating Hot Dog Eating Contest (don't forget to grab a hot dog for yourself – maybe before the contest for your appetites sake).
If it's street fairs that you want, then Water St. between Fulton and State is hosting “The Great Fourth Of July Fest” where I am sure fried dough and America's Best Grandpa shirts abound.
Battery Park will be filled with the lovely sound of perennial Brix favorite Belle and Sebastian with their free concert at 3:30. And of course there are the fireworks – find a viewing spot and enjoy with some friends.
But what do you think?
