Midtown jacked last night with Manhattan’s VR Night, wiring NYC’s spring at a 6th Avenue loft. Techie Tariq Evans ran sims as 200 dived, a $10 ticket bash of grids. It’s borough bytes—pure Midtown vibe, headsets hot. A kid glitched a world; a pro walked a void. ‘Manhattan plugs—this is it,’ Evans says, tweaking rigs. The room turned matrix.
The night’s fresh—March 24’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing seats by 7 p.m. Evans, a Harlem coder; last night’s crowd hit max—pixels glowed. A latecomer nabbed a set; buzz hummed—NYC grit shone. Runs one night—tech ruled. #NYCVR trended; Brooklyn wants a jack.
Some griped—’Too dizzy,’ sniped a newbie, dodging spins. Power surged—fixed quick; scenes held. A rival’s pitching a Chelsea plug, splitting rigs. Still, 300 stayed—grids reigned. Midtown’s never plugged so bold.
Evans hints at a monthly run, maybe a demo if spring bites. ‘NYC’s future—this builds it,’ he says, packing gear. The night’s a Manhattan win—grit meets bits. It’s a VR rush; catch the next. Bring a headset—worlds call.
