But at least you had fun up until then, didn't you?
There were scores of huge parties that got cancelled that night. Like, biggest parties of your life type things. Not to mention the huge party in the Space Needle that some poor schmuck had to pay several hundred thousand dollars even though there was no party.

You are a bizarre person if you are still holding onto disappointment over not going to once-in-a-lifetime Y2k parties. Like any New Year's party is ever as fun as it was billed to be.
Here's a guess: the parties would have been too crowded, you would have had to wait in long lines for the too few bars and then waitstaff would have handed out glasses of cheap champagne around 11:50. you'd be stuck in a 20 woman-deep line for the restroom when the ball dropped. and the fireworks would have been mainly duds anyway. then you would have driven home drunk and been lucky not to get caught in one of the infamous New Year's sobriety check-points. later you'd have some sloppy drunk New Year's sex with the Mr. and fallen asleep without feeling particularly fulfilled. the next day you would rave to your girlfriends about how you were at the party of a lifetime and how
amazing the entire night was. magical really. and by now you would have forgotten the details of the actual night and made up some fairytale of wonderfulness that you whip out during cocktail conversation because you think that anyone gives a flying fuck how you celebrated y2k.
Yeah, I guess you really did need one of those big parties. I'm sorry you will have to die unfulfilled now. Sad.
