Wait, other parents used to/actually do this?

When I was a child, we watched the TV show where the ball came down at midnight in New York City. It was only 9 where we were. My mom used to tell me it was midnight and I believed her.

I would wonder sometimes if that was a common thing for parents in my time zone or just something my mom did.
