Not all Americans do, it appears to be a Massachusetts/New England tradition. When my family moved from MA down to the south in Virginia, no one ever heard of the Chinese food on New Years eve tradition. We still keep the tradition going, only there aren't any crowds/long waits to worry about in VA :-)

The Times Square New Year's Eve ball used from 2000 - 2007 weighed about 1,070 pounds. They are using a new ball for New Year's 2008, the 100th anniversary of the tradition. I do not know how much it will weigh.

The eve, e.g. the night before New Years Day is New Years Eve.
The correct way is to write New Year's Eve.
We celebrate New Years Eve because it is a new year and because you get more time with family and friends.
I remember that in Germany, New Years Eve is called Sylvester. Sylvester Punch This New Year's Eve punch is a tradition in Austria, where the last day of the year is dedicated to the Holy Pope, St. Sylvester. He baptized Constantine the Great, thereby bringing about the dawning not only of the New Year but of a new era; for this reason, the night before the New Year is called Sylvesterabend (Eve of St. Sylvester). The Sylvesterabend celebrations are similar to American New Year's Eve parties.
