Roll Out the Red Carpet, Harry is Here

It's official, Prince Harry's first official trip to the U.S. has officially begun! As you can see he's already visited Ground Zero, talked with firefighters, and has christened the British Memorial Garden at Hanover Square (which actually isn't all that amazing). The AP noted that when he emerged "into the sunlight where the towers once stood. He glanced upwards, seemingly taking in the enormity of the structures felled in the attack, and said simply, 'Wow'." However, while looking at the rebuilding plans for the WTC site, he asked, "Big question—when is this supposed to be finished?" Patience, dear prince.

We'll update with more photos as they come in, and encourage you to send in your own pics should you find yourself in his royal presence (especially when he's not out partying tonight).

what's with Patterson's Jacket? Is that a five buttoner? If it was white he'd be working at Peter Lugers.

psst. remember he's blind. Maybe he pissed off his lady and she switched his jackets...

My last waiter at Peter Lugers was blind.

Saw Harry down by my office. Funny, now that the other one is bald, everyone loves Harry.

Looks like Harry is getting fresh with an underage bird there - better launch an investigation! Scandal!

He got all this done already!? he wants to do some serious partying tonight!

No party my ass! I bet we'd see Harry tonight at Murray Hill or MePa, hanging with blokes and smoking fags.

I believe that this is the launch of a devious plan by the Brits to reclaim and retake the colonies and Canada. I bet the Canadians will fold like Time Sq. lawn chairs when the imminent British invasion begins.

harry who? did he spend any time with the hendersons? come on give me a clue already...

He got his title and position strictly by accident of birth. Whoopdeedoo. The Founding Fathers knew that royalty was a joke.

The Founding Fathers knew the Royal family are parasites. Yet so many Americans fawn over them, like flies on shit.


"Prince Harry, scaring little girls"

Put him on the sexual predators watch list. He has to register with the police.

I was really excited about Harry's visit...

Just wondering as I did not see this firsthand... is "christened the British Memorial Garden at Hanover Square" a polite euphemism?

word! Makes sense, what with his dad being that hottie redheaded James Hewitt and all..
