lol. I like how the "Jolly Green Giant" looks like he has a little angel on his shoulder. I wonder why the Giant was even selected to be in the parade.

Papa Smurf was caught in a net and he's trying to escape.

Money talks.

Some of these are terrifying.

The clown and green giant are nightmare fuel. 😲

Re: Sneak peek of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade balloons/floats

Lol, I thought that was the cowboy from Toy Story. 🤣🙄

I think it's a banana that's part of the Minion balloon.

Re: Sneak peek of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade balloons/floats

Imagine waking up and seeing that first one (Ronald McDonald) above you, looking at you like that.

Re: Sneak peek of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade balloons/floats

I hope none of them ever visit me in my nightmares.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Maybe you'll have an erotic dream about the Ronald McDonald balloon!

Thanks, Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

I posted this turkeylove gif in another thread earlier, but I like it:

Holy shit, I'll never sleep or have sex again if that clown shows up in my dreams. 🤣

Wow!

Barney Died a Violent Death at the 1997 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

The Macy's Day Parade on Thanksgiving 1997 resulted in one woman in a coma and new balloon rules.
But the worst problem that year occurred at 72nd Street and Central Park West, when a six-story-tall Cat in the Hat struck a lamppost. As Pat Klem, who videotaped the incident, told the Times:

"You thought it was going to bounce off," he said. "But the second time it snapped – it was suspended for an instant, then it spiraled way down … The parade just stopped. There was a prolonged silence. Your thoughts go from happy, joyous Thanksgiving to prayers."

Maria Clohessy and Kathy Caronna both suffered head injuries during the incident. And, a year later, CNN reported that Caronna "Suffered a skull fracture from falling debris and was in a coma for nearly a month. Caronna, who is still recovering and says the accident caused permanent brain damage, filed a $395 million lawsuit against the city, Macy's and the lamppost manufacturer."

😺 Schrodinger's Cat walks into a bar, and doesn't. 🤨 Let's go, Brandon! 🤨 Try that in a small town.

I lost the photos I'd taken of Diana Ross and her daughter Tracy Ross when they were on the floats a few years ago.

Those crowds are no joke. It goes for miles and miles and the crowd is rude and won't let anyone through.

Me and a couple of other people pushed our way through the crowd and jumped the barricade in order to get a good view of the parade.

🥱 😴

Re: Sneak peek of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade balloons/floats

calling it, there will be a mass shooting at this parade OR someone will drive a car into the crowd.

It's New York.
Those things don't happen there.
Just planes flying into buildings by accident.

Really incredible how huge they are!

Re: Sneak peek of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade balloons/floats

You wouldn't believe how often people say that to me.

Re: Sneak peek of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade balloons/floats

Well actually, now that you bring it up…😊👍

Ronald McDonald needs a little botox and Spongebobs nose looks like a butt plug.
