Will it be particularly hard, or special in some other way? Or just another word? Inquiring minds would like to know!

There are going to be some special WORDLE events. These are from the NYTimes and focus on NYC, but there may be events elsewhere, I don't know.

I'm shocked that Wordle has made it this long as free game. I was sure when the Times took it over that it was going to require a subscription before long.

Hidden text.
I was accidentally spoiled when I was looking up special wordle events yesterday. I didn't know for certain if it was a real/true spoiler or if it was a malicious misdirect as it was not from an official NYT site so I was doubtful. I'd read the word was going to start with a vowel. I took a chance.
