Isn't great that we all live in such gilded times that are biggest concerns about historical markers?
"[Fifty] years ago, Abbie Hoffman and a few friends made a statement on Wall Street. His merry band of pranksters took a tour of the New York Stock Exchange on August 24, 1967. The tour ended at a gallery overlooking the actual trading floor. Hoffman and his friends rushed to the railing, and began throwing money onto the heads of the traders below. The stock ticker (at the time, the sacred heartbeat of the American financial system) was halted for six minutes, while the crowd grubbed for the money on the floor. Hoffmanβs group was then escorted out, where they spoke to a crowd of reporters."
After 50 years, still one of the more fascinating parts of history.
