Break Dancers in the New York City Subway

One of the very first trips Lindsay and I took as newlyweds was to New York City! Like most people in NYC we took the subway everywhere we needed to go (which fit in nicely with our newlywed budget). We would hop from station to station checking out all of the sights of the city. On one particular night we found ourselves exiting the busy Times Square station. We noticed a group of people making a circle and heard loud thumping music so we knew we were about to see something cool…and we were not disappointed. We had stumbled across a NYC icon; the subway break dancing performers. This group of guys gather in the subway, start the music and start dancing and within minutes a large crowd gathers to watch (usually in awe). Neither Lindsay or myself are break dancing experts but we were blown away at what these guys could do. We saw flips, head spins, etc, etc. After watching in amazement for probably 30 minutes, and burning up the very small memory card we had in our camera, we continued on to Times Square. We will never forget these funky dancers and the unique flare they give to the subway stations of New York City.
