Presidential motorcade - Jets Insider.com Forums

Grabbed my usual lunchtime cigar and decided to catch some rays on a bench at 1st ave and 42nd st. -- right across from the U.N. 5 minutes after lighting up they started blocking off traffic around the area and ramping up the police presence (huge NYPD presence)...ended up being the Obama motorcade leaving the U.N. and driving right past me, headed downtown to (I assume) Ground Zero. Holy sh:t, that is some BADASS firepower in that motorcade! At least 50 vehicles -- motorcycles, ambulances, all-black secret service SUVs, NYPD and FDNY special ops vehicles...Obama's limo sounded (and looked) like a f--kin tank.

Awesome display and nice surprise on the lunch break
