Kings County
Brooklyn beyond the bridge — arch to Cyclone.
The borough that would be a top-five American city on its own: Grand Army Plaza's arch, Minerva waving at Liberty from Battle Hill, murals in Bushwick, sugar-refinery ruins on the Williamsburg waterfront — and a Coney Island finale with a hot dog where the hot dog was invented. Subway + legs; wear real shoes.
The stops
Brooklyn's Arc de Triomphe. Team victory pose under the arch — you haven't earned it yet, that's the joke.
Beaux-Arts on the Lullwater. Serene photo — then the least serene photo possible, same spot. Submit the second one.
From the highest point in Brooklyn, Minerva has been waving at the Statue of Liberty since 1920. Photo catching both in one line — and wave back, it's tradition.
An open-air museum that repaints itself. Each teammate photographed with a different mural — one submission, best collage.
The sugar refinery ruins on the Williamsburg waterfront. Photo with the old Domino gantry cranes and the bridge behind.
The 1927 wooden legend. Photo at the gate — +10 with your actual ride photo, screaming mandatory.
Where the hot dog contest was born in 1916. One dog minimum per team, photographed mid-bite at the original corner.
Finish line: team photo on the boards with the Wonder Wheel behind you. Kings County, conquered.
