Thanks to the good people over at

Just after midnight on Avenue A and Seventh Street, two reportedly "drunken tourists" started playing in the traffic....
According to The Late Adopter, the two were singing loudly and wildly running in front of cabs and cars, at one point lying down in the street. "After about 15 minutes a police van rolled up and detained the drunker of the two. Eventually an ambulance showed up too so kudos to NYPD for safety first."
My guess is that they were
new singles who moved here.
