−All alone at the ''''64 World's Fair''', [[80|eighty dolls]] yelling, "Small girl after all."
+{{Quote|All alone at the '64 World's Fair, [[80|eighty dolls]] yelling, "Small girl after all."|Narrator, commentating on Bloomberg's eerie first visit}}
+'''Expo 1964''' was an unofficial [[World Expo]] held in the [[New York City]] borough of [[Queens]]. Unlike other World Expos, it ran for two years.
+{{Dia|Bloomberg|I must say, even though this Expo was unofficial, it was still one of my all-time favorite moments in [[New York City]]'s history.}}
+{{Dia|Spike|ABSOLUTELY, MAN. EVEN [[Disneyland|DISNEYLAND]] WAS INFLUENCED BY THIS EVENT. SICK STUFF, DUDE.}}
+{{Dia|Mickey Mouse|Oh boy! We found the roots of one of our parks!}}
+==Bench==
+Someone must've been there, but who? A [[nerpa]]?
+{{Dia|Niko2|...}}
+==DuPont==
+<youtube>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQCKqDJksuE</youtube>
+Really, who was at the '''DuPont Pavilion'''? Did they enjoy the wonderful [[world]] of [[chemistry]]? I sure hope so! Do they know that there are [[plastic]]s in their [[toaster]], in the [[blender]] and the [[clock]], in the [[lamp]] and in the [[roaster]], on the [[door]] and in the [[lock]], in the [[washer]] and the [[dryer]] and the [[garden]] [[tool]]s they lend, in their [[music]] [[amplifier]] and [[Electricity|electric]] [[fryer]]?
+{{DiaKing|Well, regardless of whether or not it's [[plastic]], We think it's still worth [[Katamari Damacy|rolling]] a [[katamari]] near!}}
+==Shea Stadium==
+At the time, '''Shea Stadium''' was an ultra-modern sporting venue. The longtime home of the rhyming [[New York Mets]] and [[New York Jets]], it seated 55,000 for [[baseball]] and 60,000 for [[American football]]. Unfortunately, in 2008, it was replaced by Citi Field. By that time, the Jets have been playing in [[New Jersey]] for a while.
+{{DiaKing|...And that seed is ''GONE!!'' We're on the board, 1-0!}}
+{{Dia|Spike|DUDE. YOU JUST ROLLED A KATAMARI, AND NOW ONE OF YOUR SEEDS JUST FLEW INTO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN LIKE A TORPEDO.}}
+==Subway==
+Ah yes, the [[New York City Subway]]. Many of the late R36 cars were purchased specifically for service to Expo.
+==Unisphere==
+The '''Unisphere''' is a 12-storey-high model of [[Earth (planet)|Earth]] that served as the main symbol of Expo. You can still see it in 2024.
+{{Dia|Bloomberg|It's beautiful...}}
+{{DiaKing|It's rollable! But it's not a [[katamari]].}}
