Sure, some people have their football ... or their dog shows ... but for me, it's the awkward banter and non stop promotion (every balloon and float and snippet of conversation any more seems to either be branded OR a push for an NBC show) of the Macy's extravaganza. I even watch the first hour to see how well Broadway stars can lip sync (although, let's face it ... *everybody* lip syncs at this event).
Of course, I can't watch all the giant balloons without thinking of the scene from the classic Batman movie when the Joker has filled them with poisonous gas (the Keaton-Nicholson edition, not the Bale-Ledger or West-Romero versions). And I was shocked to learn today that the KoolAid Man is the antichrist (Savannah casually mentioned that he has sixes for eyes and a nose ... aka 666).
But those things aside, thank you Macy's Day Parade 2015 for giving us the 610 Stompers and the Mipso, in addition to the standards like the Snoopy balloon and the Santa Claus. And let the holiday season begin!
IF HE BRINGS ABOUT PEACE IN THE MIDEAST, THEN WATCH OUT:
