Answer to last captured moment: 

The Bobover Rebbe, the Divrei Shloime, zt”l, would famously make the rounds on Shushan Purim, celebrating the in the streets of Boro Park—prolonging the joy and celebration even longer. In many ways, the Bobover chassidim have brought the extended Purim spirit to Boro Park, and the sight of bachurim with feathers in their hats on Shushan Purim is familiar to many.
