New Yorkers flocked to B&H, dubbing it the "hottest club in town," to purchase eclipse glasses ahead of the Great North American Solar Eclipse, causing chaos and long lines. With the eclipse visible in New York between 3:15 and 3:30 p.m., the rush for glasses intensified as other retailers ran out of stock, leading to fights and chaos at Penn Station. Despite the frenzy, people were willing to endure long waits for the chance to witness the rare event, which is the last total eclipse to hit the US for the next 20 years.
