The burning of Zozobra in 9/9/99, Santa Fe, New Mexico. This year Zozobra was a record 51 feet high.
Each year the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe stages the burning of Zozobra, kicking off the annual Fiestas de Santa Fe on the following Labor Day. Zozobra centers around the ritual burning in effigy of Old Man Gloom, or Zozobra, to dispel the hardships and travails of the past year. In 1999, Zozobra attracted 30,000 spectators to view the conflagration ritual and fireworks. (more information on its own home page, at the Library of Congress, see also this newspaper report)
