NY sets rules for dancing at events: Get down in your own dance zone only
Weddings and parties at event venues can return in New York starting March 15 and the rules are out for a critical component of those celebrations.
Dancing.
Here’s what you need to know:
You can only dance with members of your immediate party, household or family who are seated at your table at the event.
You get a dance zone: The state wants clearly marked areas assigned to each dance group that are spaced at least 6 feet apart from other dance zones.
Ideally, the zones should not be less than 36 square feet.
You have to wear a mask while you dance.
You cannot visit neighboring zones.
For ceremonial dances, like a couple’s first dance at a wedding, select attendees can participate, as long as they are designated to event venues in advance. Those dances are also limited to members of the same party, household or family and dancers must stay 6 feet apart from other attendees during the dance.
Live bands are allowed, but if they are unmasked or playing a wind instrument, they must be separated from attendees by 12 feet or a physical barrier.
There is absolutely nothing fucking scientific about this.
You can be in a big hall, all sharing the same air, but you can’t go into the dance zone of a friend at another table.
Fuck that. Especially since it came from the same fucking administration that committed senicide and obstruction of justice to cover it up.
I truly can’t wait for some big family to have their wedding raised by Cuomo’s COVID Gestapo for violating the dancing zone.
There is no reason to get married in New York. Have a destination wedding in Florida and dance with who you like.
Fuck New York and everyone who runs it. Shit like this isn’t to stop COVID, it’s an authoritarian power trip to humiliate the proles for fun.
But no restrictions on “mostly peaceful” protests. So go ahead and do your interpretive dance protest.
Gotta leave room for Jesus, Moses, AND St. Paul, I guess.
New York is rotting. Do what you want.

The knives are out and it couldn’t happen to a more deserving victim.
Every time I read something like this, I can’t help thinking “99+ % survival rate…”
