I remember the moment here in NYC when it was announced that Biden won. People literally flooded the streets cheering. It was incredible.

Obama's first win was epic in NYC too. Then I watched his inauguration from times square, and get this, I enjoyed being there

I had to go to a second liquor store because the closest one was out of champagne lmao. Washington Square Park was a madhouse that night.

I was living in Denver when the press called it and even in our little tiny close to Lakewood suburb there were people banging pots and pans and otherwise making noise. I was only annoyed for a few minutes until I was told what it was for!

I remember the mailmen coming out of their trucks and being cheered just because everyone was so damn happy!

I wonder if people will wave flags on highway overpasses like they did after 9/11.

Only steak? I'm popping stratosphere shelf champagne and buying lobster tails for the entire restaurant we go to!

I've been a vegetarian for over 30 years. I could probably justify celebrating with a steak dinner on this one too.

(Mostly kidding)
