Depends on what you define as worth watching - I'll explain. About 10 years ago my office overlooked Madison Avenue at 47th Street. I went in on a Sunday which turned out to be the Turkish Day Parade. Across 47th Street was a large groups of Greeks and Cypriots. As every one of the groups from the Turkish Day Parade made a left onto 47th, they stopped first at the corner to yell at the Greek protestors who spent the day yelling at the Turks who stopped to yell at them.
Anyway, back to my original point, if you consider ages old rivalries and an afternoon of "Greek Dog" "Turkish Pig" tit-for-tat, then it is highly interesting. Just find out where the Turks are protesting and watch the human spectacle.
