Zohran Mamdani organized a citywide scavenger hunt that drew more than 4,000 participants and started at the Tammany Hall building in Manhattan, ending at the café Little Flower in Astoria, Queens. The event included clues referencing past mayors like John Lindsay, Fiorello La Guardia, and Rudy Giuliani. The campaign's announcement video posted Saturday received over 20 million views across social-media platforms. Videos showed long lines of participants at clue locations, and Mamdani posed for photos with supporters at the finish. Mayor Eric Adams attacked the event on social media, calling it out of touch with working families and likening it to Squid Games.
What we saw today was thousands of New Yorkers joining us on a scavenger hunt, joining us to get to the foundation of what this campaign is all about, which is a love of New York City. A love that has powered this campaign from the very first day and one that showcases the fact that you cannot serve a city, you cannot fight for a city, if you do not love that city,
I'm sure a scavenger hunt was fun for the people with nothing better to do. Ask our working families trying to do whatever they can to survive if they participated. Ask the people worried about making rent if they thought it was worth it. Mamdani is trying to turn our city into the Squid Games,
