A week ago, Pulse announced a contest: write an entertaining blog about an NYC experience and win a Not For Tourists NYC Guide.
You can find the winning entry, “Betsy from Columbus, Run Down by a Bus,” here. Written by Matador member, Tom Gates (that’s him above- clearly NOT in New York), the blog is a funny meditation about the author’s growing frustration with his city.
In fact, we liked it so much, that we’ve named Tom the editor of a soon-to-launch Matador blog: MatadorLife. The MatadorLife blog will feature articles about life between trips, and Tom proved he was up to the task in less than a New York minute.
We’ve still got two more NFT guides to give away– if YOU have an entertaining NYC story, be sure to blog about it on Matador today!
And check out the NYC related articles published across the Matador Network today:
