New Year’s Eve TV Countdown 2009
Traditionally television stations host countdown programs to entertain those of us who choose to stay in and celebrate the new year. For those who are choosing to stay in this New Year’s Eve, the yearly television countdown shows are available to keep you entertained as the new year rings in. Times Square in New York and the Las Vegas Strip are two popular destinations for celebrating the beginning of the new year with shows telecast from both locations. The tradition of the “ball dropping” from the top of One Times Square in New York is part of the festivities from Times Square. The Waterford crystal ball above Times Square lowers starting at 11:59:00 p.m. and reaches the bottom of its tower 60 seconds later at the stroke of midnight. The celebration culminates in fireworks and revelers partying in Times Square, Las Vegas and other worldwide locations.
Here is a list of television countdown shows to help you ring in the new year.
