When confetti runs out, Yankee fans toss files

NEW YORK (AP) — New York City office workers who got carried
away during the Yankees victory parade Friday apparently began
tossing files and documents out the window when they couldn’t
get their hands on confetti.

Auditor Damian Salo attended the Manhattan parade. He tells The
New York Post he found all sorts of personal financial documents
in the mountains of shredded paper tossed from skyscrapers as
the players rode up Broadway.

They included pay stubs, banking data, law firm memos and even
some court files.

The founder of one financial firm, Alan Sarroff, says his
company reprimanded one “overzealous” employee for throwing
records out the window that should have been shredded.

Ticker-tape parades on Broadway are a New York tradition.
