http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2010/12/31/celebrating-the-new-year-with-sushi/New York may have a crystal ball, but Key West, Florida, has Gary Marion to help bring in the new year.
Gary who? That's a fair question, because most people know him only by the name Sushi.
Every December 31 for the past 14 years, Marion has put on a wig and false eyelashes and painted his lips before stepping into a supersized red high heel on the roof of the Bourbon Street Pub. The gown Sushi wears is handmade. This year it is gold and silver, and it took Marion about 45 hours to make.
