Tim Tebow: Tebow Superfan "Tebowing" the Big Apple

Tim Tebow did it again.  Another Sunday, another 4th quarter comeback win.  Tebow just continues to impress by fine-tuning his passing ability as he continues to win games.   

As Tim Tebow continues to take his game to the next level I figured it would be only appropriate for me to do the same.

For Tebow, elevating his game requires hours upon hours of physical conditioning, long nights of reviewing film and a dedication to the game of football.  

For me, elevating my game requires traveling to the most populated city in the United States, New York City, and committing hours upon hours "tebowing" some of the most famous locations.

While most people are still stuck on taking tebowing photos of single locations, I am taking the tebowing game to the next level by opening it up to tebowing entire cities at a time.

As any true tebower knows, you are only as good as your photographer and I have to give a shootout to mine, my wife.  Without her commitment to tebowing none of this would have been possible.

Let the tebowing of entire cities begin!  

Tebowing an Infamous NYC Trash Pile

What better way to start off the tebowing of NYC than to start with something the city is synonymous for—trash piles.  Whatever street you walk down you will undoubtedly encounter a big pile of trash waiting to be taken away.  

This tebowing photo was pretty disgusting based on the incredible stank of the trash.  No opportunity too big or too small for a tebowing photo. 

Tebowing with Vikings RB Adrian Peterson in Nike Store

In honor of his matchup against the Vikings, I figured it would only be appropriate to take some time and do some tebowing with Adrian Peterson in the Nike Store.  WIth all that Peterson and his Nike-wear repels, it couldn't repel the attacks of Tebow and his Broncos. 

I know what you're thinking, and the answer is no.  I know it's shocking, but that isn't really Adrian Peterson, it's just a poster.  

Tebowing Saint Patrick's Cathedral in NYC

It is only appropriate to do some tebowing in one of the biggest churches, albeit catholic, in NYC.  Saint Patrick's cathedral sees over 5.5 million visitors every year, but I'm imagining this is its first visitor who took a moment to do some tebowing. 

What makes this tebowing moment even better is that it took place during an actual mass. Tebowing waits for no one, not even a priest. 

Tebowing on a Bed in the Hotel

I didn't go to Yale and I didn't break into a room in the Yale Club.  So how did I get in to a bedroom to do some tebowing on a bed in the Yale Club?  Only my wife and I will ever know the answer to that question. 

I figured it was time to take tebowing to the Ivy league, and what better school to start with than Yale? 

Tebowing on a Traffic Free 5th Avenue 42nd Street

Anyone who has ever been to NYC knows how insane traffic is there all the time.  Just imagine how difficult it would be to get a picture in the middle of the street with absolutely no traffic.  Yeah, it was pretty difficult, but that's what it takes to be great.  

Tebowing on 5th ave. and 42nd street without any traffic wasn't easy, but it had to be done.  

Tebowing Radio City Music Hall in NYC

I took some time to remember the wonderful 2009-2010 NFL draft that took place in Radio City Music Hall that gave the Denver Broncos the great Tim Tebow.  Two years ago a lot of people thought the Broncos were insane for taking Tebow so high.  I wonder what they are thinking now.    

While Tebow wasn't actually at the draft, because he's too cool for it, I'm pretty sure he was in that limo behind me.

Tebowing the Times Square TV Screen in NYC

The TV screen deserved some tebowing because it was where New Yorkers who weren't at the Heisman ceremony first found out that Tebow won the Heisman in 2007.

I will be driving back up to NYC this next weekend for the 2011 Heisman trophy ceremony, because I'm pretty sure even though Tebow isn't in college anymore, he is still going to win the Heisman this year.  

He's just that good.   

Tebowing the 50-Foot Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree

It takes some serious dedication to get up in the morning early enough to be able to get a photo in front of the tree, with the lights on, without anyone else there.  You know, that is just the kind of dedication it takes to be an avid tebower.  

Rumor has it that next year at Christmas the tree will be replaced with an enormous gold statue of Tim Tebow tebowing with lights wrapped around it.  I honestly think it would be a lot nicer.  

Broadway Tebowing at Spiderman: Turn off the Dark

The best part of this tebowing picture is that it isn't allowed.  Pictures of any sort are not allowed at any Broadway play or theatre, but that didn't stop me from Tebowing.  

The rule of no photographs was easy to bypass by a simple pretend tying of the shoe, and a pretend text message on the phone of my wife.  Tebow has needed creativity to will his team to victory, just as I needed creativity to pull off this tebowing picture.  

Tebowing an Escalator in Trump Towers in NYC

It's surprisingly difficult to do some tebowing on an escalator, especially when it takes place in a prestigious building in New York City.  I expect some sort of tebowing mission to be the final competition on the next season of Trump's reality show, The Apprentice.  When that happens, I want some sort of credit.   

Unfortunately as I was tebowing on the escalator, Donald Trump came out and said: "You're fired!"  

Tebowing at the NYC Public Library (Ghostbusters Anyone?)

The infamous library where part of the first Ghostbusters was filmed definitely deserves some tebowing. This photo was difficult only because I had to wait for Dan Aykroyd to clear out the library of some annoying ghosts before I get the shot.

As you can tell in the photo, Aykroyd succeeded, and that definitely warrants some tebowing.   

Tebowing at the Mall in Central Park

Watch any movie filmed in NYC and you will most likely see a scene that involves a long walkway in a park lined with beautiful trees on each side.  What you will see is the mall in Central Park, a perfect place to bring the art of tebowing.  

This was a nice tebowing shot with a lot of people looking on, and more importantly a pretty good band playing immediately behind me.  Central Park has officially been introduced to tebowing.  

Tebowing with Some NYC Pigeons in Herald Square

Just like Tebow is synonymous with football, pigeons are synonymous with NYC.  I thought it was necessary to take some time and show some respect for the millions of Pigeons in NYC by tebowing with a select few.  

NYC wouldn't be the same without pigeons, and football wouldn't be the same without Tebow. Put those together and you get tebowing with pigeons.

Tebowing a Christmas List to the Real Santa at Macy's

There is really only one real place to mail letters to Santa, and everyone knows that place is Macy's on 34th street.  The miracle on 34th street this year doesn't involve a little girl who believes in Santa.  It involves a grown man who wants Tim Tebow to keep winning.  

What was on my Christmas list?  I won't give specifics, but I will tell you it involves someone named Tim Tebow and an MVP trophy. 

Tebowing with the Real Santa at Macy's ... Miracle on 34th Street Anyone?

I don't really know if Tim Tebow believes in Santa or not, but I'm 100 percent certain that Santa believes in Tim Tebow.  

Everyone knows the real Santa is at Macy's on 34th street.  Don't worry Broncos and Tebow fans, I asked him for a Super Bowl, so it's pretty much a lock.  

Tebowing Before Getting on the R Train to Brooklyn

You can't leave NYC without taking a ride on the subway system.  You also can't leave NYC now without tebowing in the metro station.  Don't worry, I took care of that here. 

Tebowing in a metro station isn't really difficult, except for the fact that I probably contracted some virus or disease by touching the ground.  I burned my pants after this photo, don't worry. 

Night Time Tebowing in Time's Square in Traffic

Walking around in Times Square is hard enough, nevertheless trying to get a photo on a crosswalk as cars are trying to drive through.  I undoubtedly got a few "I'm going to run over you if you don't move honks," but that didn't stop me from tebowing where I know I needed to.

After this photo I got quite a few, "nice tebowing" compliments.  I think it's fair to say that tebowing has made it all the way to the big apple. 

Taxi Tebowing in NYC

Another thing you have to do in NYC is take a taxi somewhere.  It's like a roller coaster ride without loops and twists, and with a lot of weird smells.  I'm sure Tim Tebow doesn't have to take a taxi anywhere, but I still do, so what better way to hail a taxi than by tebowing for it. 

Turns out taxis won't stop if you're tebowing.  I'll have to send out a memo to all taxis so they get with the program. 

Tebowing at

This tebowing picture was pretty weak, but I still needed to include it.  This photo displays tebowing at a super fancy restaurant/bar called "The Modern" inside the Museum of Modern Art.  The reason I took this photo is because tebowing at a restaurant like "The Modern" is absolutely frowned upon—but that didn't stop me.  

Just like Tebow, this picture isn't pretty but it got the job done of proving that no restaurant is safe from tebowing.     

Tebowing at Madison Square Garden, Bringing Tebow to the NBA

If you are really a sports fan, you've got to stop at MSG when you are in New York City.  I know Tebow doesn't' play basketball, but I'm pretty sure that he would be awesome at it if he did.

The New York Knicks should probably stop worrying about trading for Chris Paul and start trying to get Tim Tebow to start playing basketball.  I guarantee that would work out better for them.  It would at least up the tebowing in NYC.  

Tebowing with the New York Police Department (NYPD)

Kudos to my wife timing this photo just right to get the lights on on the cop car.  While there are a ridiculous amount of NYPD cars out in NYC, it's hard to find one that supports taking a photo of it while tebowing.  Fortunately for me, I found one that couldn't yell at me until I was done.   

So was I arrested for tebowing in NYC?  Only my wife and I will ever know the answer to that question. 

Tebowing with the Rockefeller Atlas Statue

The one thing that Tim Tebow and the mythical "Atlas" have in common is that they both carry the weight of the world on their shoulders.  Tebow actually doesn't carry the weight of the world, but he comes close. 

While it wasn't the most difficult tebowing of the trip to NYC, it was impressive that my wife could fit the entire statue in the photo.  Just another case of her doing the impossible, just like Tim Tebow. 

Largest Toys R Us Store in the United States Tebowing

I'm sure Tim Tebow loves Toys R Us—I mean, who doesn't right?  Tebowing in front of the biggest toy store in the United States—yes, even bigger than FAO Schwarz—was a no-brainer.  

Isn't it amazing how I captured Santa and Rudolph taking a test flight through New York City just under the Toys R Us sign?  I'm pretty sure he showed up because he saw me tebowing.      

Apple Tebowing ... R.I.P Steve Jobs

It was only appropriate to take a moment and do some tebowing in honor of the late Steve Jobs and his incredible Apple store located in the heart of NYC, right outside central park. 

I'm not sure why the people behind me aren't watching me tebow, but hey, there are just some questions in life that we will never know the answers to—and this is one of them.  

Tebowing the Downtown R Subway Train

Tebowing on a subway train takes some serious balance.  I know because I almost tipped over and rolled down the train during this photo.  The best part of this tebowing photo was that the lady beside my wife thought that I was going to propose to her.  

That brings up a good point: Is there a better way to propose than on a subway train?  I think not!  If I could only go back in time and ask my wife to marry me by tebowing on a dirty subway train.

Central Park Bridge Tebowing

If you've ever been to Central Park you will undoubtedly know the bridge I am talking about when I say I "tebowed" at that bridge in Central Park.  I'm not sure what the name of the bridge is, but it is the one that allows you to take an awesome tebowing picture with part of NYC's skyline in the background.  

Yes, I was on the edge of a bridge with a 20-foot drop off just inches away, and yes my wife told me not to do it, but hey, if you want to be a true tebower, you can't be afraid of anything. 

Tebowing Time Square Close Up

I knew one tebowing photo in traffic photo wasn't enough for Times Square, so I shot another picture in the heart of Time's square closer to where the ball will drop on New Year's Eve.  

Times Square is a special sight to see at night, and just imagine how much more of a special sight it was when onlookers saw a beautiful tebowing pose in the middle of the street. 

Tebowing Grand Central Station

Good news guys, Grand Central Station is still standing.  Turns out Armageddon wasn't a documentary like I previously thought.  It was just a movie, and those asteroids didn't actually smash through the roof and destroy the train station.  

In honor of finding out that incredible news, I knew I had to take a moment of tebowing.
