You know you are a NY tourist if...

you wear a tour badge
you travel in large groups
you only have 10 minutes to eat and you ravenously eat McDonalds in front of my building
your group takes up the doorway of three businesses in a narrow walkway
you don't cross the street when there is no cars coming and a don't walk sign
you poke new yorkers with your umbrella when it really isnt raining
you carry a large map and passport holder on your chest
you look lost
you stare at people on the subway and pretend you know where you going but then decide to ask someone (we know who you are...even if you try and blend in)
You carry gear for all sorts of weather
you wear socks with sandals


while we all have been in the tourist position..the NY tourists just crack me up. I will have an oncoming You know you area  NY tourist if section as i find funny tourists
