Five of the coolest deals in NYC this week

With so many concerts, events, theater, classes and activities in NYC, deciding how to spend your free time can seem like a Herculean task. No one knows that better than Time Out New York editors—who do you think rounds up all the best things to do in NYC, anyway? In our quest for the most fun activities, we occasionally come across deals that are just too good to pass up. Here are the five best we found this week, including a BYOB pottery class, the virtual reality exhibition that sports fans won't want to miss and surprisingly cheap tickets to Fetty Wap.

NFL Experience Times Square 20 Times Square; various dates and times; $40.28 
Discover if you have what it takes to make it in the big leagues at the NFL Experience Times Square. This interactive exhibit allows fans to test their throwing arm, standing jump and coaching skills through virtual reality.

Kokedama: Hanging Garden Workshop Brooklyn Botanic Garden: Jan 21 at 2pm; $88
The winter weather might be putting the kibosh on your dreams of a fire escape garden, but you can still cultivate kokedama, or hanging plants encased in a ball of moss. Put together two hanging houseplants to take home in this hands-on class.
