Extra Polishness in Greenpoint Today

There are men on motocycles with Polish flags flying from both their handlebars. People are driving through the streets waving red and white banners with POLAND on them. I have no idea what's going on. 

I came to Greenpoint with the intent to eat Polish food at a Polish restaurant for the sake of general hunger, but each one of them is packed and even the less popular joints have a 45 minute wait for a table. Across the street from the original restaurant I'd intended to visit, a woman was observing the bikers and their flags from her window.
