I have a question, although I doubt you remember the details, since you were in the crowd that night, were people actually handing out those plastic horns?
@@Wheeloffortunefan999 You had to buy them. I vividly remember this one idiot I went with blasting everyone in the ear with one because they were like 3 1/2 feet long so you could get someone several people away in the crowd. I thought someone was going to kill him. It was super dangerous back then with lots of pickpockets, drug dealers, pimps etc. I remember those horns, the 1991 glasses with the 9's being the frames, and trips to Sbarro to pee until you couldn't get through the crowd anymore. Then you just pissed on the ground where you stood. Even the girls all squatted and peed on the ground in the middle of the crowd. You don't see that stuff on TV but it's insane. At least it was back then.
The year of Nirvana, REM, RHCP, A Tribe Called Quest, Naughty by Nature, Metallica, Boyz II Men, oh yeah, and need we forget Sonic the Hedgehog and the 3 original Nicktoons.
Newborn babies were born in 1991 like Cody Emmett Jameson Anderson, Steve Smith, Devon Joseph "DJ", Izzy, Mary, Kari Kamiya, T.K. Takashi, Ken Ichijouji formerly known as the Digimon Emperor, Davis Motomiya, Zoe Orimoto, Rika Nonaka,
Hard to believe this was 30 years ago this week! I remember this, it was the first year I recorded the ball drop. I was 13 years old, 3 months shy of 14, and just a few weeks away from the start of the Gulf War
This is really difficult to watch. Time really goes by. I was eight years old in 1990, and in 1991, I turned 9, in September 1991. I can honestly say that life is truly a gift, and each day, and year that I'm given, I will not take it for granted. It's really sad that so many people don't realize that. 1991 was truly one of the best years of my life. As I continue to gain knowledge and wisdom, I put my faith in a higher power, not man.
What's crazy is that back then, I was 17, it took so long to go from say, 1985 to 91 or 91 to 95. Now...it's a blip in time. So so fast. It goes incredibly fast after thirty. Even faster after 40.
This would be the last year you would ever hear 80s influenced music on non oldies radio stations until late September of 91 when nirvana made a rocking gem
@@9852323 really cause where I’m from when I was growing up I barely herd any 80s music mostly late 90s early 2000s music I didn’t start hearing 80s music until my dad bought greatest hits from the 80s cd
1991 doesn't even seem that long ago. I mean, I wasn't born until 4 years after so I didn't experience it personally but it just seems ?? ? so recent. Weird to think 30 years have passed. *edit: I wasn't born 4 years ago aghksj

The person in 1:41 Its the countdown to the 2nd year of the decade already of the 90s/ rarely usage of 200th decade That is why my impression feels weird followed by Dick Clarks laugh as well..
3:19 Prob, this guy standing at the front, there are prob thousands wear blue hoodies in the entire clip. This guy looks noticeable. So, prob this guy.
I remember this well. I was sitting in the NYPD police academy as a recruit and our instructor had a pole and ball drawn on chalkboard and as it approached midnight he'd erase it and draw it in a lower position. 😂😂😂😂
Game show the challengers funny moment from 1990: category: tricky diction: I'm not a crook, I'm not a quitter, I'm not the president anymore. LOL!. Another category: lady killers: Bruce Willis, George Michael AND Henry the 8th. LOL. DICK CLARK SAID: NOW THERE'S A LADY KILLER IF THERE EVER WAS ONE. LOL!.
lol @ 1:21 the guy with the vuvuzela, I am going to assume that he was blowing it as if it was a normal party horn? I am asking because i did not see him actually holding it with his hands, and i will be ABSOLUTELY (BLEEPING) DAMNED if it is in any way possible to actually blow one of those the proper way without actually holding onto it without at least one hand.) (Although I could actually have been completely mistaken about the FIRST part of that comment, if I am, feel free to let me know in a reply to this comment.)
Five years within 1991: (MCMXXX) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar, the 1986th year of the Common Era (CE) and (AD) designations, the 986th year of the 2nd millennium, the 86th year of the 20th century, and the 7th year of the 1980s decade.
1991 was actually the second to last New Year’s in Times Square to not feature confetti being tossed at midnight. It would then become an official part of the celebrations as of 1993 onwards, even during the COVID years of 2021 and 2022 where the crowds at Times Square were much smaller due to the pandemic.
I was there that night. It's so cool to see glimpses of the old Times Square-- the Jockey ad, the Camel cigarettes ad, Sbarro, etc. etc.

Speaking of 1991, that quality is very badass.
I thought the same thing.. I remember this ball drop we were in family house in Brooklyn NY ❤️❤️

This is the year that the first page of the internet went online.
It was on 1995
This is the year that Freddie Mercury died
@Flame Resistant Troll Very true, well said
@Jayden Hiraldo No, he was correct. The first website went live on August 6th 1991.

80s wasn’t played on oldies stations till like the 2010s though.

Yeah 1991 awesome as i was born in 1991 n im totally proud to be 90s kid
Same 😃👍🏽
I was born a decade later
3:07 - 3:11 I'm laughing so hard at this part! Notice how the new year came by only 2 seconds early. XD LOL
Its 1991 in California, it's 1991 in NY lol
Not a clue
@@Peyethon California are 3 hours behind New York, so when New York reached 1991, they were still in 1990.
We was 8 years old for me and twin brother in Chicago, IL1991. Happy new Year, 1991!!!
That makes no sense because in California, when 1991 arrived in NYC, it was 9pm in CA, therefore, it was still 1990 there
@Mcnight Smith I was stating that point as if to say, why is Dick saying that when its a 3 hr difference. Anyway, damn this is 30 yrs ago.
Born on June 19th, 1991...wow.
MY BABY SIS IS BORN IN JUNE 19 2016 :O
