December 31st, 1999 was probably one of the biggest New Year’s Eve event in America history, entering a new century.
A new millennium
how did you forget to mention that it was a new period of 1000 years
There was that Y2K scare too, I think
@@Inactive194New Millennium was in 2001. Y2K was the new century
Yes
50th Anniversary (1973-2023)
I agree I dunno how 1973-2022 is the 50th anniversary but I’ll take 1973-2023 the 50th anniversary
The 51 anniversary
stop arguing
nyre started in 1972 so last year it was celebrating its 50th anniversary
and now in 2023 was the 51st annual nyre ball drop

From 2006-2012, you can hear Dick Clark’s declining health in his voice.
06 was rough
It’s sad
He had a stroke in 2004. That’s why his voice declined during that time

2000s-2010:….
He died in 2012...
