South Bend New Year's Eve
Couples toast the Scottish New Year just after 7 p.m. EDT as Mark Neal, the South Bend City Controller, performs first-foot duties during a celebration on Tuesday, Dec. 31, 2013, at Fiddler’s Hearth in downtown South Bend. The first-foot in Scottish lore is the first person to cross the threshold after the New Year. Neal brought charcoal for the restaurant’s fireplace and whiskey as gifts. Neal will run the city as the deputy mayor for half of 2014 while mayor Pete Buttigieg is deployed in Afghanistan with the Navy Reserve. (James Brosher/South Bend Tribune)
