If you could be any Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Balloon, which would you be?

Asked by blueberry_kid (5957points) November 24th, 2011

I love watching the parade every year. My mom says that since she workd for Macy’s, I can be in it next year! How exciting!

But, I always love watching Snoopy float on by, or of course Kermit the Frog. I would love to be a balloon that just floats on by!

Which would you be?

One that wouldn’t pop. When I was ill and had to have brain surgery in 1992, a friend sent me flowers and in the container was a small balloon on a stick that said, “Get Well Soon”. I still have it and it’s still blown up. It may go on for years, like me! May the balloon you select to be, and the nice people we know, go on for years, and years, and…......By the way, I’m an ex NYC gal and loved attending the Macy’s Parade when I was a child.

Went to “Macy’s Inflation Event” (<= is that name a p.r. mishap or what?) last eve.
The Energizer Bunny is my favorite.

Buzz Lightyear would look cool floating above our front yard. I don’t think that the home owner’s association would approve but it might make national news. HA!

Either Superman or Bullwinkle.

I’d be the villainous character from “Fairly Odd Parents”, NEGA-CHIN. He flies well, so he’d make a great float in the parade.
