Weird New York: Your Guide to New York's Local Legends and Best Kept Secrets

It's called the Empire State because, as any New Yorker will tell you, it's the state by which all others are measured.

Avoid the screaming and gunshots of House Road, but do sample the Jell-O Museum in Le Roy. And next time you're in Staten Island, beware of Bigfoot-he's found his way out there.
