How to unlock the Far Far Away Badge – Foursquare
I would say that the Far Far Away Badge is a very hard badge to achieve and wrongly named. I would like to think that if I lived say in Boston, and checked in anywhere that is really really far, like say Tokyo Japan, then I should deserve the Far Far Away. However Foursquare decided that the Far Far Away badge really has nothing to do with how far your really are, and instead awards the badge depending on checking in at a specific location, even though that location can be 5 minutes away from where you live
Far Far Away Badge
To unlock the Far Far Away badge, you must be in New York City and checking somewhere above 59th Street, which is not quite clear, as soon as you check in somewhere above 59th St, Foursquare will give you the badge and issue you a “Welcome to the world above 59th Street!”
I got the badge by checking in at Venue 31689 a.k.a Bloomingdale’s, 1000 3rd Ave, btw 59th & 60th
New York, NY
If you find your self in NYC, drop by Bloomingdale’s and get yourself a quick badge, otherwise, that badge will remain unlocked.
this one is unfair!
I live in PR and i’m sure i will never go to nyc… 
I know this badge is very unfair and makes no sense. But I hear that they are adding different cities, even though I am not sure which
this is very unfair. I live in Soho and work in Midtown, this one could take months. If they moved it down to 42nd street it would be more doable.
It is what it is, that the rules and like I said, you can checkin all the way in Japan and still not get the badge
I have checked into http://foursquare.com/venue/31689 three times no badge yet
