Pope Benedict XVI visited New York during his tour of the United States in 2008. One might think, that as members of the Catholic press, we would have been given priority in receiving press passes, but, alas, it was not so. However, one of the enterprising reporters on the staff rounded up tickets to the papal arrival at St. Patrick's Cathedral, and also the papal Mass. These photos show the crowd lining the streets, the cathedral, and give a feel for what it is like to be in the large crowds.
