Long before discovering football, I was watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV. The floats were amazing, but it was the stories tall balloons that really captured me! It all started with Felix the Cat in 1927. This year we have three new floats: Ronald McDonald, a new Dino from "The Flintstones" and a Red Angry Bird. The other long standing Thanksgiving tradition is football! After giving thanks and gobbling up the gobbler, many families unsnap the top button of their pants and settle in for an afternoon of yelling at the game. Unless the Pats are playing, the game is background noise to me, but I do love a parade!

Today's Head to Head:

 

Have you ever been to one of these events? It would be super exciting to be at the Macy's Parade or a televised Thanksgiving football game! Tell your story on our Fan Page or tweet #paradevsfootball

I still dream of lip-syncing on a Thanksgiving float...
