Normally, I go out of my way to avoid the crowds at New York's Feast of San Gennaro (the patron saint of Naples), held every September since 1926. Originally, the newly arrived immigrant merchants and cafe owners shared their wares and food with passersby here along Mulberry Street in exchange for a small offering for the poor. I'm pretty sure the vendors aren't expected to give away all their profits these days, when more than a million people show up for the ambience and the zeppole.
