How to ice skate in Rockefeller Center
It made me
happy 
"The line is chaos, but it's worth the wait."
How I did it: I go to "Breakfast with Santa" with my younger cousins/aunts/uncles every Christmas since I could remember - Skating is included. No wait to get on the ice. They keep it from getting too crowded by making the people who walk in from off the street waiting.
Lessons & tips: If you have kids or younger family members - take them to breakfast at Rockefeller Center. Makes them happy and includes skating without the wait, AND you get to watch people skate right next to you through the window.
