The crowds can be frustrating, but seeing the balloons just 20-30 feet away - and at that scale - is exciting. Little kids were saying "Mr Potato Head's fingers are bigger than me!"
I think a spectator mentioned, you want crowds, wait till tomorrow.
the balloon blow up the night before is a treat.
native ny'er here, never went to one thanksgiving day parade because it's too early and cold.
SUPER HELLO KITTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I miss Bart Simpson and Spider man... but SUPER HELLO KITTY!!!!! Why do we let McDonalds put the world's scariest clown in the parade? He's the guy that makes kids fat and then molests them. SUPER HELLO KITTY!!!!!
