Only the American Falls freezes - the Horseshoe Falls never freezes (too much water flow).
Back in history when the river froze from shore to shore - they'd set up wooden shacks and sell shit to tourists from mid-river. Then one year the ice broke up unexpected and sent some people to their deaths in the rapids.
Poof - no more souvenir shacks on the river.
Some people just spoil it for others.
