Merry Ash Wednesday!
Speaking of the holidays, people around here don't seem to care much about this tree-tossing in March stuff. Our friends from One More Folded Sunset note this today in Park Slope:

ICTTS officials disqualify this tree from competition
Thanks to EV Grieve reader Rob D. for the above photo of this poor thing spotted during the weekend on Avenue A between First Street and Second Street.
However, since receiving this photo, officials at the International Coalition of Tree Tossing in the Spring (ICTTS) said that we cannot include this tree in this year's competition. An official said there is a little-known codicil in the ICTTS constitution that mandates trees must still have 75 percent of its branches intact to qualify.

On East Second Street. And for authenticity purposes. The Holiday Tree Street team placed a copy of today's Post of New York next to the little fellow.
Meanwhile, apparently some upstarts in Park Slope think they can horn in on this late tree tossing thing. EV Grieve reader Kate sent along this shot from March 1 on Eighth Avenue and 10th Street...
Go back to Brooklyn! Uh. Or something!

On St. Patrick's Day, a Christmas miracle in Tompkins Square Park
Upon walking in Tompkins Square Park last night... I was, quite frankly, not surprised, to see the holiday tree all lit up for the first time in a few months...
I noticed in January that no one had actually ever removed all the lights... and the extension cord was still lying there...
So, a fellow decided to take a rest under the tree last evening, and he apparently plugged in the tree...

Two Christmas trees in the trash... Avenue C and Fourth Street last night. And we beat last year's record of March 2.
